120 ~ Seiun Inari Jinja (Fox Carvings)

 

Japanese Name:  青雲稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Seiun Inari Jinja
English Translation: Blue Sky Inari Shrine
Size: Small
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 4 (2 carvings)
First Visit: 26-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Shinagawa
Address: 1 Chome-2-7 Higashioi, Shinagawa City, Tokyo 140-0011

Again, only two blocks further on, there's another fox shrine. This one features a nice carving of two foxes above the altar, along with the pair of life-sized stone foxes sitting watch in front of the shrine building. Visible in the background and in fact located directly behind the shrine is the viaduct carrying the tracks of the Keikyu Main Line.
