Tenmangu refers to a type of Shinto shrine in Japan dedicated to Sugawara no Michizane, a scholar and politician from the Heian period. He is revered as the deity of learning and is particularly popular among students seeking academic success. These shrines often feature plum trees, as Sugawara no Michizane had a deep affection for them. Many Tenmangu shrines host festivals, such as the Tenjin Matsuri, celebrating the deity's contributions to education and culture. Visitors often come to pray for wisdom and success in their studies.
