136 ~ Tsumakoi Inari

 

Japanese Name:  妻恋稲荷
Romanized Reading: Tsumakoi Inari
English Translation: Loving Wive Inari
Size: Tiny Side Shrine of Tsumakoi Jinja
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 2+
First Visit: 29-Apr-2018
Location: Tokyo-Bunkyo
Address: 3 Chome-2-6 Yushima, Bunkyō, Tokyo 113-0034

The other fox shrine that I should find on today's short stray through Bunkyou-Ku. This one is a side shrine of Tsumakoi Jinja (妻恋神社 "Loving Wife Shrine"). The tiny side shrine is adorned with a golden circle depicting a fan - the symbol of Tsumakoi Jinja. At the time of my visit, there were only two tiny porcelain foxes there, but judging from the images on google, there might be more foxes around by now.
