Like I said in my previous photograph, I know next to nothing about Shinto, so I'm unclear about what exactly you would call this srhine building. However, I have researched what the ropes over the doorway indicate. Essentially, they are a marker to indicate you are passing onto sacred ground, and you should be reverent once you proceed past them.

If it helps, this is a shrine (jinja) to the kami/god Tenjin. He is god of education and scholarship :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenjin_(kami)
