There is a shrine which famous for a plum tree.
This is Kitano-Tenmanguu-shrine.
This shrine god’s name is Sir. Mitizane Sugawara, he was very very smart parson, Japanese people say “this shrine is god of study.
When the university entrance exam period, so many examinee go to there.
And you can see some statues of cow in shrine, why?
