Founder and a leader of this teaching was the great <strong>Kobo Daishi<\/strong> (774-835), who is believed to have seen the Great Buddha, after coming out of his meditation.<\/p>\n<p>His <strong>mausoleum<\/strong> is an absolute must for all visitors &#8211; foreign and locals, as this is also considered <strong>one of the most sacred places in all of Japan<\/strong>.
