Kitano Tenman Shrine: Pray for success in studies and success in love.
⛩️ Kitano Tenman Shrine, an old shrine in Kobe. A compact shrine built in 1180 to dedicate to the god Tenjin. The atmosphere is shady and quiet. A famous sacred place for praying for knowledge and success.
⛩️It is believed that the god Sugawara Michishinko is the god of learning and success. He helps people succeed in their studies, careers, and knowledge. Students, as well as working people, come here to pray for progress in life. It is very crowded during the New Year.
⛩️The shrine is located on a hill. The entrance to the shrine is a large stone torii gate welcoming the sanctity. We have to walk up about 60 steps, sweating a little. You can see a beautiful panoramic view of Kobe. It is a must-see viewpoint.
⛩️On top, there is a 🐮 statue of the sacred cow Gojin, which attracts good fortune when rubbed, and a 🐟 statue of a carp. It is said that if you pour water on the carp and pray for "love", your wish will come true.❤️
🔮For the lucky items, there are Ema sheets to write your prayers on, omikuji fortune-telling sheets to get your fortune told, and various lucky charms to boost your luck in various aspects. Let me tell you, it's all here in one place.
