127 ~ Kaihou Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  海豊稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Kaiun Inari Jinja
English Translation: Ocean Bounty Inari Shrine
Size: Small Side Shrine of Iwai Jinja
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 9
First Visit: 26-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Ota
Address: 2 Chome-20-8 Ōmorikita, Ōta-ku, Tōkyō-to 143-0016

Crossing over into Tokyo's Ota-District, I find this fox shrine as a side shrine of Iwai Jinja (磐井神社 "Crag Well Shrine"). Six foxes, small and tiny, sit inside, and a life-sized stone fox pair guards the outside. The one on the left also features a kit, thus bringing the vixen side count to 8:24.
