Kobe | Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, a shrine dedicated to academic success.

✓ Kitano Tenmangu Shrine Located in the Kitano Ijinkan Street, an area known for its European-style architecture, Kitano Tenmangu Shrine stands out as a historical structure with over 800 years of history. Despite its contrast with the surrounding buildings, the shrine offers a stunning panoramic view of Kobe City due to its elevated position. The shrine is primarily dedicated to Sugawara no Michizane, the deity of learning. Visitors often touch the statue of the cow at the shrine, as it is believed that doing so can make one smarter and bring good luck. Additionally, the shrine's purification fountain features a beautiful koi fish, and visitors can perform a unique love fortune ritual here by drawing a water fortune slip, which is said to be quite effective.
