Ikimi Tenmangu Shrine
The oldest Tenmangu Shrine in Japan, Ikimi Tenmangu, was built during the lifetime of Sugawara no Michizane, the famous god of learning.
Genzo Takebe, a character in the famous Kabuki play "Sugawara Denju Tenarai Kan", reputedly built the shrine to pray for Michizane's safety after he was transferred to Dazaifu.
