A brief introduction to Fukuoka Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine and travel experience
The main deity of Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine is Sugawara Michizaki, the god of learning, and is the first shrine in Japan to enshrine a real person.In the Heian period, Michizane Sugawara was awarded a doctorate in essays due to his knowledge. Under his successful career, not only did Emperor Daigo promote the Minister of Right, but even his daughter married a prince. If the political relationship was very good, people would be jealous.Later, the left minister, Tokihira Fujiwara, slandered and slandered. He was demoted to Dazaifu on Kyushu Island as the commander of power. His eldest son, Sugawara Takashi's four children, were sentenced to death.
▲ The first time I visited Tenmangu Shrine, it coincided with the red plum blossoms in full bloom, not to lose to the cherry blossoms! (And a faint fragrance)
▲ Touching the bull's head in front of the copper bull is said to increase wisdom and money luck.

Why do you worship Sugawara Michizane?
Pulling his vision back to Kyoto, Emperor Daigo denounced Dozen and exiled his children. Unexpectedly, his prince died one by one, and even Qingliangdian was struck by lightning, causing deaths and injuries.I couldn't help making associations with Dozen's grievances, and immediately took remedial measures, pardoning Sugawara's crimes and rewarding him with an official position, and the children were lifted from the execution and brought back to Kyoto. Later, the tomb and Tenmangu shrine were built here in Dazaifu, which is why the name is given.
Michizane Sugawara showed his intellectual talent since he was a child, and later generations respected him as the god of learning. Not only did Japanese students come to take the exam to pray for success, even overseas tourists also knew the main priest of Tenmangu Shrine.And there are more than 6,000 plum trees planted inside and outside the Tenmangu Shrine in Dazaifu. It is also because he missed him too much in a Japanese song and legendary plum blossoms. He flew from Kyoto to Dazaifu on Kyushu Island overnight, and there was a rumor of "flying plums."
