Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine (with baby)

Really great temple and small town to wander around. Make sure to visit the small shops before heading into the temple, because if you came late, they’ll probably be closed by the time you finish wandering the temple. It’s not super crowded, which is good. There is a lot of things you can do in here which is really great! Highly recommended. Also very easy to access.

Dazaifu Tenmangu is a beautiful and historic shrine in Fukuoka, dedicated to the god of learning. The serene approach through a path lined with shops and the striking red arched bridge create a peaceful atmosphere. Visitors often write wishes on wooden plaques or buy lucky charms praying for academic success. The surrounding gardens, stunning architecture, beautiful scenery and the tranquil set...

Went on my first solo trip and visited early in the morning — it was peaceful with very few people around. The weather in late May was perfect. If you have time, I recommend starting from Omotesando and taking a slow walk down. There are plenty of unique shops along the way that are worth checking out!

Very peaceful and quiet with a big pond. I went early in the morning before anything was open, but also before any people got there. The main shrine was obviously closed at that time so I’m sure I missed out on a lot but it was very nice to take in the sight in peace and quiet 🥰

There were lots of lovely little shops in the street leading up to the shrine, we really enjoyed our walk around the whole area. The shrine was beautiful and filled with students wishing for blessing on their studies. The area also famous for their delicious red bean cake, must try! Great texture. You've also got to walk around the shrine for the beautiful old trees scenery.
