In geometry, the order-8 octagonal tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of {8,8} (eight octagons around each vertex) and is self-dual.
This tiling represents a hyperbolic kaleidoscope of 8 mirrors meeting at a point and bounding regular octagon fundamental domains. This symmetry by orbifold notation is called *44444444 with 8 order-4 mirror intersections. In Coxeter notation can be represented as [8,8*], removing two of three mirrors (passing through the octagon center) in the [8,8] symmetry.
This tiling is topologically related as a part of sequence of regular tilings with octagonal faces, starting with the octagonal tiling, with Schläfli symbol {8,n}, and Coxeter diagram 
, progressing to infinity.
