78 ~ Wagou Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  和合稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Wagou Inari Jinja
English Translation: Harmony Inari Shrine
Size: Small Side Shrine (of Fukagawa Shinmeigu)
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 8
First Visit: 12-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Koto
Address: 1 Chome-3-17 Morishita, Kōtō-ku, Tōkyō-to 135-0004

A small foxy Side Shrine of Fukagawa Shinmeigu (深川神明宮 "Deep River Amaterasu Hall"), which incidentally is still not located in the eponymous Fukuagawa neighborhood, but rather in Morishita (森下 "Below the Forest"). This side shrine consists of a little cabin built around a Tiny shrine, which fits my definition of "I could take shelter inside during the rain", thus making it a Small shrine in my book. A total of 8 tiny foxes flank the inner tiny shrine, with 4 to each side.
