Things to do in Ogori

This is a shrine that worships Sugawara no Michizane, a man of letters from the Heian period of Japan, as the god of learning. It is said that it helps you pass exams and achieve success, and that it helps you maintain good health. It is a very famous shrine!

Very good museum, lots of interesting things to be learned. big and informative

I went at Friday night, but it was still not crowded. The views are really beautiful and it’s worth to go if you’re in the area.

I was overwhelmed by the number of frogs. I empathize with the messages written inside the temple, and I am grateful that by passing through the frog's mouth, I can "rejuvenate, smile, and regain my energy"! This is definitely a temple I recommend!

One of my favorite parks placed in the city, Ohorikoen is quite massive, making it a good place for picnics, anytime strolls, jogging, and also has some swan boats for a fun ride in the lake during daytime. If you want to chill for a coffee there is Starbucks.

Kora Taisha Shrine in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, is an ancient shrine with a history of more than 1,600 years. The shrine was built near the top of Mt. Kora. Locals believe that the entire mountain is a sacred place where gods exist, and they still attach great importance to the mountain. Pass through the torii gate and climb the 131 stone steps to reach the observatory, from which you can see the entire Kurume city! It has now become a popular photo spot! The most recommended time is sunset, because Kora Taisha Shrine is built on the top of the mountain, so you can enjoy the torii gate, stone steps, sunset and night view at once. Around the summer solstice in June, you can also see the light path where the stone steps and the sunset are in a straight line.

Kushida Shrine is a must-visit shrine when you come to Hakata. You must come to see the Gion Yamakasa. Although I didn't come in July, I didn't see the big Yamakasa in the city, but I can see the Yamakasa in Kushida Shrine. Read the introduction According to the legend of the shrine, Kushida Shrine was founded in the first year of Tenpyo Hoji (757) and has been the general guardian of Hakata since ancient times. The Hakata Festival is a representative festival of Fukuoka City and is well-known throughout the country.
