Misenhondo Hall
A Buddhist temple in Hatsukaichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture was reportedly founded by Kukai in 806 and became a training hall for Shingon Esoteric Buddhism. The main principal of worship is the bodhisattva called Akasagarbha (Kokuzo Bosatsu), and the bodhisattva is flanked by Acala (Fudo Myoo) and Vaisravana (Bishamonten). The fire lit by Kukai when he was praying is still kept burning, and you can enjoy tea made by the spiritual water boiled in kettles over this fire.
