    Osaka Tenmangu is a famous shrine in Osaka and a place many students visit before taking exams. It enshrines Sugawara no Michizane, the “god of learning,” so throughout the year, many people come to pray for success on exams and progress in their studies.

    The shrine’s famous Daishogun Shrine is said to be a power spot, adding to the solemn and peaceful atmosphere of the grounds. Unfortunately, some areas were under renovation during this visit, so I couldn’t fully appreciate the shrine’s appearance, which was a little disappointing. Still, walking around, I could feel its rich history. I hope to visit again and see all of Osaka Tenmangu next time.
