160 ~ Tokome Inari

 

Japanese Name:  斗米稲荷
Romanized Reading: Tokome Inari
English Translation: Rice Dipper Inari
Size: Tiny Side Shrine of Sakakiyama Inari Jinja
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 2
First Visit: 20-May-2018
Location: Morioka
Address: 2 Chome-12-12 Kitayama, Morioka, Iwate 020-0061

One of the many tiny side shrines of Sakakiyama Inari. This one features a pair of very crudely hewn yet still recognizable stone foxes. The name of this shrine is actually a best guess from what I could read from a nearby plaque depicting the history of the many tiny shrines in this area.
