180 ~ Toyoteru Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  豊照稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Toyoteru Inari Jinja
English Translation: Bountiful Shine Inari Shrine
Size: Small
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: 4
First Visit: 8-Aug-2018
Location: Niigata
Address: 1-2545 Higashiminatomachidori, Chuo Ward, Niigata, 951-8028

The only fox shrine that I should find on my one-day stayover in the city of Niigata (新潟 "New Lagoon"). A pair of life-sized stone foxes sit watch outside, and a pair of smaller ones resides within. The ones inside are probably made from porcelain, but it's kinda hard to tell with the light coming from behind them. They definitely aren't standard design porcelain foxies though.
