: Nishiki Tenmangu

At the east end of the Nishiki Market, you will find a Torii gate and lines of paper lanterns. That is Nishiki Tenmangu. You will find that new and old coexist in Kyoto; the holly place is surrounded by concrete buildings, but still embraces the town.

錦天満宮 - Nishiki Tenmangu at the end of Nishiki Market

The lines of paper lanterns show that the shrine is loved and supported by the shops and restaurants in the town; every lantern bears name of a supporter.

錦天満宮 - Nishiki Tenmangu

To make a long story short, this shrine was built to worship Sugawara Michizane, who was a scholar and also a politician in the Heian period. To make another long story short, he was often associated with bulls. Visitors rub the statue of bull for good fortune. This is why the statue is always polished.
