58 ~ Fushimi Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  伏見稲荷神社 
Romanized Reading: Fushimi Inari Jinja
English Translation: Prostrated Hopes Inari Shrine
Size: Small
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 3
First Visit: 3-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Chuo
Address: 2 Chome-11-5 Yaesu, Chuo City, Tokyo 104-0028

A small fox shrine (and branch shrine of Fushimi Inari Taisha) surrounded on three sides by large buildings. Located at the bottom of a narrow between buildings a minimum of four stories high, and facing north no less, this shrine probably barely ever gets any sunlight. Meanwhile, the stone fox statues here are of another unusual design, probably meaning they were custom-made for this shrine alone. Also, the right fox has a kit to the right, bringing the vixen side count to 1:12.
