 Kiyomizu-dera temple
After the capital moved to Heian-kyo, Tamuramaro and Enchin encountered at the Otowa no taki (Sound of Feathers Waterfall), and Tamuramaro offered his mansion which was made into the Kita Kannon-ji temple.
In 807, when Sakanoue-no Tamuramaro visited the temple to pray for the attack to conquer the Ainu, it had a marvelous effect, so it is said that he moved the principal image to Kyoto, and built the Kiyomizu-dera temple.
In the late Heian era, however, the temple was entangled in the civil war between Kofuku-ji temple and Enryaku-ji temple and was burned down a couple of times, so many of the buildings we see today were rebuilt in 1633 by the 3rd Shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate, Tokugawa Iemitsu.

 Sakanoue's grave | No-sword
Seems that Yoshikawa was reading some very old administrative notes in Kiyomizu-dera, which Tamuramaro is said to have built, when he found an entry which designated "the water-fields, land-fields, and hills of Kurisu Village, Kuita West Town, Road 7, Uji County, Yamashiro Province" (山城国宇治郡七条咋田西里栗栖村) as Tamuramaro's grave.
(No doubt the address actually went on to include [alright, began with] "the world, the solar system, the galaxy, the universe", but this part was eaten by worms.)
Tamuramaro is most famous for his real-life anti-Emishi campaign across the mainland, but in later centuries he evolved into an all-purpose folk hero, protecting the people from various monsters.

According to one legend, the origins of the floats are said to date back to the 9th century when an imperial general, Sakanoue no Tamuramaro, built huge paper models to intimidate the rebellious tribes he had been sent to pacify in the north of Japan.
As in other festivals throughout Japan, the deities are invited into the float, paraded through the streets, feasted with rituals, food and entertainment, before being sent on their way and the float destroyed.
Although this ritual element is no longer prominent in the Nebuta Festival in Aomori, it continues to structure the event.
