Sankakuji
"The Triangular Temple"
Another pretty temple. This one got its name from a triangular goma altar located near the center of the temple grounds. The mountain (Sangō) it sits on is called Yurei-san, which means Ghost Mountain; the story goes that there used to be a ghost living near the temple who loved to cause trouble. Fortunately, Kōbō Daishi got rid of it.
Seeing the mountain being referred to as Sangō reminded me of Inu Yasha, but I think that's partly due to the fact that we're getting kind of punchy by now, so things are frequently funnier than they ought to be. A little sleep ought to help that. Allison's giving me a look now, so I should sign off so we can find our lodgings. Bye for now!!
