History
Enshrined in the Bancho district, this shrine gathers the devoted followers of the great scholar Sugawara no Michizane. The faith in Tenjin, transmitted from ancient Kyoto, took deep root in this Sanuki land long ago. What touches this fox spirit most is the earnest prayer of young scholars seeking to hone their talents. Cherished through generations as a place where countless seekers have cultivated their abilities, it remains a beacon of learning to this day.
