16 ~ Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name: 稲荷神社
English Reading: Inari Jinja
English Translation: Inari Shrine
Size: Tiny
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 2
First Visit: 14-Mar-2018
Location: Tokyo-Shinjuku
Coordinates: 35.7038659,139.7421011

A nameless Inari Shrine next to a motorbike parking lot. Placed under a sheltering roof, this tiny shrine features a pair of black stone foxes. Technically, I don't even know for sure that it's called "Inari Jinja" or is an Inari Shrine, since this shrine does not feature a name plaque whatsoever, but the foxes are always a strong indicator for that. Also, it is called like that on Google, which I assume means that it is known by the locals as such.
