The Katsuragi 28 Shuku (Japanese: 葛城二十八宿, Hepburn: Katsuragi nijūhasshuku), or the Katsuragi 28 Shuku Kyōzuka, is a series of twenty-eight 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.
