Some of these groups are:</p> <ul> <li><b>Imperial shrines</b> <br>These are the shrines which were directly funded and administered by the government during the era of <a href=e2130.html>State Shinto</a>. They include many of Shinto's most important shrines such as the <a href=e4300.html>Ise Shrines</a>, <a href=e5804.html>Izumo Shrine</a> and <a href=e3301.html>Atsuta Shrine</a>, and a number of shrines newly built during the <a href=e2130.html>Meiji Period</a>, such as Tokyo's <a href=e3002.html>Meiji Shrine</a> and Kyoto's <a href=e3904.html>Heian Shrine</a>. Imperial shrines can be recognized by the <a href=e2135.html>imperial family</a>'s chrysanthemum crest and by the fact that they are often called "jingu" rather than "jinja".</li> <li><b>Inari shrines</b> <br>Inari shrines are dedicated to Inari, the <a href=e2056.html>kami</a> of <a href=e2043.html>rice</a>. They can be recognized by fox statues, as the fox is considered the messenger of Inari. There are thousands of Inari shrines across Japan, among which Kyoto's <a href=e3915.html>Fushimi Inari Shrine</a> is most famous.</li> <li><b>Hachiman shrines</b> <br>Hachiman shrines are dedicated to Hachiman, the <a href=e2056.html>kami</a> of war, which used to be particularly popular among the leading military clans of the past. Of Japan's thousands of Hachiman shrines, the most famous is probably Kamakura's <a href=e3102.html>Tsurugaoka Hachimangu</a>, while their head shrine is <a href=e4722.html>Usa Shrine</a> on <a href=/list/e1108.html>Kyushu</a>.</li> <li><b>Tenjin shrines</b> <br>Tenjin shrines are dedicated to the kami of Sugawara Michizane, a <a href=e2132.html>Heian Period</a> scholar and politician. They are particularly popular among students preparing for entrance exams. Tenjin shrines can be recognized by ox statues and <a href=e2013.html>plum trees</a>, Michizane's favorite trees. The most famous Tenjin shrine is <a href=e4851.html>Dazaifu Tenmangu</a> near <a href=e2161.html>Fukuoka</a>.</li> <li><b>Sengen shrines</b> <br>Sengen shrines are dedicated to Princess Konohanasakuya, the Shinto deity of <a href=e2172.html>Mount Fuji</a>. More than one thousand Sengen shrines exist across Japan, with the <a href=e6367.html>head shrines</a> standing at the foot and the summit of Mount Fuji itself.</li> <li><b>Shrines dedicated to the founders of powerful clans</b> <br>Some powerful clans in Japanese history established and dedicated shrines to the their clans' founders. The most famous example are the several dozens of Toshogu shrines dedicated to <a href=e2128.html>Tokugawa Ieyasu</a>, including the famous <a href=e3801.html>Toshogu Shrine</a> at Nikko. Another example is Kanazawa's <a href=e4203.html>Oyama Shrine</a> which is dedicated to Maeda Toshiie, the founder of the powerful, local Maeda clan.</li> <li><b>Local shrines</b> <br>Many shrines are dedicated to local kami without association to other shrines.</li> </ul> <div data-page-id="/e/e2059.html" class="ad_spot ad_spot-- ad_spot--has-ad_label ad_spot--embedded l-margin_breakout
