Hida Tenmangu Shrine
A Shinto shrine 12 minutes on foot from Takayama Station on the JR Takayama Main Line. It's said to have been founded in 903 by Sugawara no Kanemochi, Sugawara no Michizane's third son and a provincial governor. He built it on the death of his father. The grounds feature a messenger of the Tenjin deity, a Nade-ushi cow image that parishioners rub and make wishes. Many students visit for boons from Sugawara no Michizane, famous as a god of learning. The main shrine you see today was built in 1992. The lion dance performed at the annual festival on April 14th and 15th is registered as a Folk Cultural Property.
