The shrine worships Sugawara-no-Michizane, the god of learning and scholarship. So many students come and pray here to pass school entrance exams.39 viewsThe torch festival marks the anniversary of Michizane's death on March 25. All Tenjin and Tenmangu shrines are dedicated to Michizane. The festival started with a short ceremony inside the shrine's worship hall at 6 pm. It was followed by the torch procession.

The festival site occupies an area of a much larger plot of land that was the site of Nissan's auto factory. Along with a few other factories, Nissan closed its vehicle assembly plant here in 2001.39 viewsI was told that it also had a test track here, which explains why it's so huge. Interesting that Nissan had a policy of keeping all its affected workers who were transferred to other jobs or offered early retirement. The city itself did not suffer much tax loss since Nissan didn't have taxable profits while operating in the red at the time. But local businesses such as taxi drivers, restaurants, and shops must've suffered.
