A shrine hidden in Kyoto's busiest shopping district

When you come to Shijo Kawase-cho in Kyoto, you must visit the bustling Shinkyogoku Shopping Street. In addition to the Nishiki Market, the kitchen of Kyoto people, this shopping street also hides a shrine called "Nishiki Tenmangu". The rows of lantern walls at Kinshitenmangu Shrine are very eye-catching in the shopping district. The god of learning, Sugawara no Michizane, is enshrined here. Many people come here every day to pray for academic progress and career success. It is said that if you touch the head of the big golden bull at the door, you will become smart, so the head of the big golden bull is rubbed until it shines. There are also some small shrines in the Kinshitenmangu Shrine, including Shiogamousa Shrine, Hinode Inari Shrine, Shirafu Shrine, etc. #Japanese and Korean urban attractions
