88 ~ Hayato Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  隼人稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Hayato Inari Jinja
English Translation: Falcon People Inari Shrine
Size: Tiny
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 9
First Visit: 19-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Arakawa
Coordinates: 35.7268775,139.7738433

A small Inari shrine right next to a temple, so I'm not sure about whether to count this as a side shrine or not. In the end, I think it's its own place because it has its own road access and is not directly connected to the temple next door. Foxes of different sizes can be found both outside and inside, and the fox to the right features a kit, thus bringing the vixen side count to 4:18. By the way "Hayato" is the name of the ancient people of Kyushu who opposed the reign of Yamato during the 8th century.
