History
Standing in Kambo of Yoshiicho, Karasina Shrine is revered by students as a god of learning. Throughout the ages I have watched, countless students preparing for exams have offered their prayers here. Their fervent wishes and determined efforts create a special atmosphere around the shrine that becomes encouragement for those who follow. The purity of heart in those who seek to polish wisdom and master learning gathers and accumulates here. Even the ancient trees of the shrine feel this intention and stand with purpose.
