Description
This is the first major temple on the way up Mt . Misen . In it a pot that is reputed to have been boiling steadily ever since the monk Kobo Daishi (774-835) used it to boil his dinner : sort of a variation on the "eternal flame " theme . Note the supply of firewood on the left . He is reputed to have invented the classic Japanese rice paddle , so such paddles are sold throughout the island as souvenirs .
