Assassin's Creed Shadows: Lost Page Locations & Interactive Tracking Guide

Collect four of the five Lost Pages at a temple, and you receive exactly nothing. The reward fires per temple, not per page — which makes this the one collectible in Assassin's Creed Shadows where walking away early is genuinely worse than never starting.

There are 97 Lost Pages scattered across Japan's temple grounds, and all of them are marked on the AC Shadows Japan map.


How Lost Pages Work


Every Temple holds between two and five Lost Pages somewhere on its grounds. Find all of them and the temple registers as complete, paying out 500 XP and 1 Knowledge Point.


Find some of them, and you get a partial counter and no reward at all. There's no partial credit, no XP trickle per page. It's all or nothing per site.


Temples appear on the world map with a distinctive icon once discovered, and the page counter shows how many remain the moment you enter the grounds.


Use Focus Mode to Find Every Lost Page


Hold Focus Mode and Lost Pages resolve as white dots through walls, foliage, and rooftops. This is not optional — several pages sit in places you would never visually check.


Confirmed hiding spots across the temples: on rooftops, inside decayed tree trunks beside water, on the floor of collapsed houses, on small rocky islets in the middle of ponds, at the end of long tree branches over cliff edges, and tucked beside stone lamps on the ground.


Play as Naoe for these sweeps. Her grappling hook and parkour reach elevated pages in seconds where Yasuke has to find a staircase, and a decent share of the 97 are placed above ground level specifically.


Some Temples Fight Back


Not every temple is a quiet garden. Several are restricted territory patrolled by guards, Warrior Monks, and samurai who attack on sight — Tenryuji Temple in eastern Kyoto is fully restricted, and Tennoji Temple in Osaka keeps enemies inside the walls right beside its second page.


The reliable approach at hostile temples is to go at night, move through the bushes, grab the page, and return to cover rather than clearing the grounds. And regardless of how peaceful a temple looks, roaming ronin will still attack if they spot you.


A few temples also open up through story progress. Gansenji Temple in Izumi Settsu is visited during The Fatherless Monk, and it's far easier to sweep afterwards.


Winter Makes Lost Pages Harder to See


Worth planning around. In snow-covered regions, the white Focus Mode dot competes with a white environment, and pages become genuinely difficult to pick out. Daikichiji Temple in northeastern Omi is the clearest example.


If a temple sits in a region that goes heavily snowbound, sweeping it in another season saves real frustration.


Where the Lost Pages Are Concentrated


Yamashiro carries the heaviest load with 10 temples, unsurprising given it contains Kyoto — Toji, Tofukuji, Ginkakuji, Tenryuji, Shokokuji and more. Ginkakuji in particular scatters its pages across rooftops and small islands inside the temple grounds.


Awaji Island adds two more temples, with identical requirements and identical rewards. They can be cleared before, during, or after the Claws of Awaji story.


Lost Pages and the Six Knowledge Ranks


Temple sweeps are among the safest Knowledge Point sources in the game — most involve no combat at all, which makes them ideal for filling gaps between harder activities.


Ranks 2, 3, and 4 cost 10 Knowledge Points each; Rank 5 costs 15 and unlocks the strongest skills; Rank 6 is the ceiling.


Lost Pages pair naturally with Shrines and Kofun since all three are open to either character, while Kuji-kiri and Hidden Trails are Naoe's alone and Kata belongs to Yasuke.

Lost Page #1 - Myoshoji TempleAwaji Island

Upon entering the temple from its eastern entrance, take the next left. Walk a few steps and trigger your Eagle Vision to spot the glow of the lost page and a treasure hiding behind some large bushes.


To reach them, look to your left and climb the large, curvy tree with the ladder next to the temple wall. Head to the end of the branch, grapple, swing, and dive right into the pool below to find the treasure chest.


Afterward, exit the water to claim the Lost Page sitting on a raised rock.

Lost Page #2 - Myoshoji TempleAwaji Island

Enter the temple from the eastern entrance and head straight into the next courtyard. Take a left through the wall opening into the cemetery. Trigger your Eagle Vision and look up at the trees ahead to spot the Lost Page.


Head toward the cluster of 3 trees in the back—you will notice they have climbing attachments, and your prize is at the top of the middle one!


To get up there, go to the tall grave markers on the cemetery's outer edge near the right-hand tree. Climb up a grave marker, jump into the branches of the right tree, and follow them to the end. Leap over to the middle tree and cross the branches to grab the Lost Page.

Lost Page #3 - Myoshoji TempleAwaji Island

Enter the temple's eastern entrance and step forward, taking a right just before the stairs to the next courtyard.


Keep going straight until you spot a small, stone-stepped gravel pathway on your right.


Head down the path and stop right before it curves. Trigger your Eagle Vision to locate the glowing Lost Page inside the small building nearby.


Look down by the small steps for a crawlspace opening, go prone, and crawl under until you can climb up through the trap door.


Once inside, use the “push plank” prompt to knock over the boards and climb across. Squeeze through the stacked crates, and you will finally reach your Lost Page.
