In the meantime, a temporary prayer hall has been built so that visitors can continue to pay their respects and pray to Tenjin. All of the elements used to build the temporary hall are inspired by the story of the flying plum tree. The story tells of a plum tree that loved Sugawara so much that it flew from Kyoto to Dazaifu in a single night to be with him. The design features a simple black structure with a beautiful roof that is covered with grass and trees.
同時，也搭建了臨時本殿以方便遊客繼續參拜以及對天神致上敬意。建造臨時本殿的所有元素均受到飛梅傳說的啟發。故事講述一棵非常愛菅原道真的梅樹，為了與他在一起，一夜之間從京都飛到了太宰府。其設計採用簡單的黑色建築物和漂亮的屋頂，上頭覆蓋著青草和樹木。
