90 ~ Kouryou Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  向陵稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Kouryou Inari Jinja
English Translation: Mausoleum-Facing Inari Shrine
Size: Tiny
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 5
First Visit: 19-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Arakawa
Address: 4 Chome-7-34 Nishinippori, Arakawa-ku, Tōkyō-to 116-0013

A little fox shrine that is so significant for the area, that the nearby road was named after it: Kouryou Inari Saka (向陵稲荷坂 "Mausoleum-Facing Inari Slope"). The shrine itself sits on the edge of a little ledge in the landscape, from where one would be able to have a great view, if not for the tall buildings all around. The fox to the right features a kit, thus bringing the vixen side count to 4:19.
