The {{Nihongo|Katsuragi 28 Shuku|葛城二十八宿|Katsuragi nijūhasshuku|lead=yes}}, or the Katsuragi 28 Shuku Kyōzuka, is a series of twenty-eight {{nihongo|sutra mounds|経塚|kyōzuka}} found mainly in the Kongō Range in the Kansai region of Japan. The majority of the sutra mounds lie within the Kongō-Ikoma-Kisen Quasi-National Park. According to legend, each of the sutra mounds corresponds to a chapter of the Lotus Sutra buried by En no Gyoja, the mythical 7th-century founder of Shugendō.{{cite book|author=垂井俊憲|title=犬鳴山修験道葛城二十八宿を巡る: 垂井俊憲写真集|publisher= 東方出版|date=2001|isbn=9784885917028|language=ja}}{{cite book|author=宮家準|title=修験道の経・講式・和讃・唱言|publisher=春秋社|date=2023|isbn=9784393291375|pages=193-198|language=ja}}{{cite book|last=Padoan|first=Tatsuma|title=Approaching Pilgrimage|chapter=Walking the Sutra|publisher=Routledge|publication-place=London|date=2023|isbn=978-1-003-13776-4|doi=10.4324/9781003137764-7|page=59–76}}
