Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine

福岡県太宰府市宰府4丁目7-1

A shrine dedicated to Sugawara no Michizane, the deity of learning, drawing visitors year-round. A short distance away lie the ruins of the ancient Dazaifu government headquarters, marked by a stone monument reading "Special Historic Site: Dazaifu Ruins" and a quiet historical park recalling the site's role as the administrative, diplomatic, and military center of Kyushu during the Heian period.
