This shrine is around the corner of Dazaifu’s Tenmangu. U have to pay a small entrance fee. At the inner court, u can view the backyard’s beautiful scene. U can’t go down to the yard as they want to preserve the place. But there is a deck that u can stand there to take pictures. The scene is beautiful, n it’s within easy access from Hakata Station. Instead of taking a train, we took a bus from the Hakata Bus Termjnal (right next to the JR station) n it took us 45-50min only.
