Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, located in Fukuoka, Kyushu, Japan, has a history dating back to 919 AD. As one of the oldest Tenjin shrines in the world and the main shrine of Tenjin in Japan, it carries a profound cultural heritage.
The shrine is centered around the worship of Sugawara no Michizane and retains the architectural style of the Heian period. It houses precious artifacts such as the "Tenjin Festival Score" and attracts countless visitors each year with its grand "Academic Festival."
Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine boldly breaks tradition by collaborating with top international teams to ingeniously use cutting-edge technologies like AI and AR, creating an immersive artistic experience for visitors.
This place is not only a sacred space for people's faith but is gradually becoming a cultural exchange hub for the city. In addition to hosting grand traditional events like the Tenjin Festival, it actively develops cultural and creative products, perfectly blending traditional culture with modern creativity.
Moreover, Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine is an ecological model. The 1500-year-old great camphor tree and the 1000-year-old couple camphor trees are still thriving, quietly witnessing the passage of time and showcasing the shrine's commitment to sustainable development.
