History
I speak of this temple dedicated to Sugawara Michizane, the patron of learning. Like the curved gourd, it gracefully illuminates the path forward. Countless scholars have come to offer their earnest prayers for academic advancement. As a place nurturing Kanazawa's culture, it continues to shine as a beacon of knowledge.
