What other travelers are saying about Osaka Tenmangu Shrine
What a beautiful contrast between the modern urban area of Osaka and this place! People also lovely, the souvenirs (charm/amulet) are good designs and seem to be effective (haha, at least for my friend). Go back for sure. *Haven't bought any advance ticket yet.
Worth a quick diversion if you are visiting. We are not adherants to this faith, however it was clear that a key purpose was one of calm, and it was very effective.
It was very cool for us to see a touch of Australia for us Aussies through the Friendship Monument
This is a very traditional shrine. I came here for my child's Omiyamairi (shrine visit), and I was very satisfied with how quickly we were able to proceed with the ceremony. However, there is little shade, so be cautious if you visit on a hot day. It's particularly important to take care if you have young children or elderly people with you. Despite the lack of shade, the experience was wonderful and the shrine's traditional atmosphere made it a memorable visit.
A big shrine in town. They have a big main hall for people to pray, one for stamps, charms and fortunes, and several others. The goshuin was nice and costs ¥500.
Fantastic place to get away from the crowds of Osaka. Peaceful, quaint and minimal tourists.
There's worship areas and tourist spaces for people who just wish to look around and not take part in any religious ceremonies. Though there is a place to purchase items for offering and wishes.
Unfortunately it was lightly raining during my visit, but even still, I enjoyed the atmosphere and the scenery.
