A tiny fox shrine found in front of a residence in Nikko's Yasukawachou (安川町 "Peaceful River Town"). The stairs open directly onto the sidewalk, so I'm sure its for public use. A pair of stone foxes sits watch in front of the tiny stone shrine, and another two tiny pairs of porcelain foxes of different design reside within.
