A shrine located in the residential area of Katsuoka. It's right next to Katsuoka Park. Said to be the god of learning At the shrine that enshrines ``Sugawara Michizane'' Yamashiro Province (present-day Kyoto Prefecture) was founded in 974 during the Heian period. It is said to have been built in. After that, he was transferred to the throne due to various reasons. The vermilion color looks great, I think it's a wonderful shrine! Donto Festival, Niiname Festival, Setsubun etc. There are various events It's a busy shrine!

One plum tree that located nearest to the shrine is starting to bloom~ Seems to be a popular shrine for students.

Very cool shrine in downtown Sendai. Well kept and large ground. Definitely worth a visit in Sendai.

One of many Tenmangu shrines across Japan. This one was relocated here by the 4th lord of the Date Clan, Date Tsunamura, in 1667. People come to pray to the enshrined deity Sugawara Michizane for success in academics and politics. The Chinese-style gate is a city registered cultural asset and a stone monument records a poem by famous haiku poet Matsuo Basho, commemorating his “Narrow Road to the Deep North.”
