2016 “Ueno Tenjin Festival Danjiri Event” was registered by UNESCO

It is known as Ueno Tenjin and is famous for the Ueno Tenjin Festival held in October. MatsuoBasho, a native of Iga Ueno, dedicated his maiden collection of poems, ``Kai Ohohi.'' It is affectionately known by the locals as ``Tenjin-san.''
It is said that the zelkova tree within the shrine grounds buds twice every year, once in spring and once in autumn, and is known as the ``twice-budded zelkova'' and has been designated as a natural monument by the city. There is also a tower gate and bell tower built in the mid-Edo period, which have been designated as cultural properties by the prefecture.
