Sugawara no Michizane (845-903), who is akin to a deity of scholarship, is enshrined here. Wisteria trellises cover the area, giving it a very special atmosphere, and when they are in bloom in spring, the Fuji Matsuri festival is held here. Also, there are around 200 plum trees, as Michizane is said to have loved plum blossoms, and in February the Ume Matsury festival is held. Here is also a seedling from the sacred plum tree from Daizafu Tenmangu Shrine in Kyushu.
In the moats around the temple there are herons and an abundance of turtles.
