Located in the center of Kochi City, Kochi Prefecture, this shrine serves as the Ujigami (local tutelary deity) for the southern half of the city. During Hatsumode (the first shrine visit of the New Year), it attracts more worshippers than Tosa Shrine, making it the most visited shrine in the city.

Sugawara-no-Michizane (Tenjin)

History

The shrine's founding is attributed to the enshrinement of imperial seals and other items delivered to Sugawara no Takashiro, son of Sugawara no Michizane, in 905 CE (Engi 5). During the Edo period, Miyauchi Heibei used his personal funds to rebuild the shrine buildings independently. Major renovations were carried out in 1902 (Meiji 35) for the millennium celebration of Sugawara no Michizane, but the structures were destroyed by air raids during the Great East Asia War.
