Sugawara Michizane; a place where the god of Japanese learning is enshrined

 Dazaifutenmangu in Japan is a shrine located in Tazahua, Fukuoka. It houses Michizane Sugawano, known as the god of learning, and is one of Japan's important cultural properties. 

 Sugawano Michizane was a Heian scholar in the late ninth century who was respected for his excellent academic ability and political talent, but he was demoted due to Fujiwara's conspiracy and exiled after Tazahua. This is a biography that reminds me of Jeong Yak-yong, a Dasan in korea. 

 There are many things to eat at the entrance to the shrine. There were many people who came to see it. 

 There is a statue of a bull at the entrance of Ten Thousand Palace in Dazaifu. It is said that this is the cow that brought Michizane Sugawano to Dazaifu. Visitors believe that touching the statue will make them smart, so their horns and face are shiny. 

The inside of the shrine was very clean and well landscaped. The scenery is so good that it can be a photo spot wherever you go, so I recommend that anyone who passes by this area visit there. It looks like a tree that's hundreds of years old and a lake that shines on it is really well harmonized. 

There were many people who made wishes at the shrine. It is said that many test takers and job seekers visit because they are gentlemen who worship the god of learning. The cherry blossoms were also really pretty. In Japan, they make a lake like this and release fish. I think there were many kinds of silk carp. The shrine building and cherry blossoms were well harmonized. 

 There are statues of Wuxi (ox), Kitsune (fox), Inosi (wild pig), and Tora (tiger) at Tenmung Palace in Dazaifu. The fox represents the spirit of the Tenmung Palace, and the wild boar and the tiger represent the guardian deity of the Tenmung Palace. 

The shrine building is very unique. There were grasses and plants on top of the building. I thought it was a unique architecture. If it rains, the soil will get wet and become very heavy, but it seems like the building will be cool in the hot sun in summer.
