History

Byakko

The Tenjin Jinja that I visited is a shrine that enshrines Sugawara no Michizane, the god of learning. It is said to bring benefits not only for academic achievement and passing exams but also for improvement in the field of arts. It is located in a quiet mountainous area, filled with refreshing air. Many students and artists visit to pray for the blossoming of their talents. It has a history of nurturing people's learning and creativity in this area since ancient times. It is a place where one can confront their aspirations for self-improvement in a solemn atmosphere.
