A document detailing the history of Mount Hiei Konponchudo (Main Hall) of Enryaku-ji Temple This is the main hall of Enryaku-ji Temple on Mount Hiei. It began when Dengyo Daishi Saicho built a small hermitage on Mount Hiei in 785 AD, and three years later, in 788 AD, he established a small hall at the current location of the Konponchudo. The principal image is said to be Yakushi Rurikō Nyorai (Healing Buddha), carved by Saicho with a single stroke and three bows. Since the lighting of the lamp in front of the principal image, the flame lit by Saicho has continued to shine for 1200 years without ever going out, and is therefore called the "Eternal Flame."

The principal image is a Jōroku (life-size) Amida Nyorai (Amida Buddha), and memorial services are also held for the general public. In front of the hall, there is a Suikinkutsu (water koto cave) where you can listen to beautiful sounds. The bell tower in front of the Amida Hall is designated as an Important Cultural Property of the country.
