A little smart Tenmangu Shrine in Kubocho, patron saint of academics


I live quietly now, but even because I moved from Kanagawa in 1917 and there was a flower district nearby, Kubocho Tenmangu Shrine was so busy that Isogo's Okamura Tenjin It was a show.

enshrined deity is the god of learning, Sugawara no Michizane. Toshihide climbed to the right minister in the generation of Emperor Uda, but lost his legs due to the conspiracy of the left minister of Ichimon Fujiwara, Tokihira, and lonely away in Dazaifu, Kyushu, but his grudge (Onnen) It is suddenly attacked as a lightning god.

The Imperial Court, who was tired of the violence, returned to his original position 20 years after his death, gave him the second place, and calmed his anger by worshiping as a god. . However, Tenjin here is calm, and it is said that especially if you donate sake (goshu), you will be able to see it.
