    Hiking

    Small area with temples and Buddha statues in interesting outifts ;-)
    There is also the hall of the never-ending fire from which the fire is supposed to come from the Peace Park in Hiroshima.


    The Buddhist monk Kūkai is believed to have held austerity for 100 days here in 806. The fire should not be extinguished since then. (Source: Wikipedia)

    Hiking

    Here, near the summit of Mt. Misen, are several temples belonging to the Daisho-in Temple.

    The "Misen Hondo" (Misen Main Hall) and the "Reikado" (Hall of the Spiritual Flame). The latter houses a flame, which the monk "Kobo Daishi" is said to have set. The fire has since burned allegedly and was also used to light the "Flame of Peace" in the Peace Memorial Park in Hiroshima.

    On the way up you pass right here and should also take a look inside.
