185 BRONZE ~ Kikuya Inari Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  菊屋稲荷神社
Romanized Reading: Kikuya Inari Jinja
English Translation: Chrysanthemum Shop Inari Shrine
Size: Small
Deity: Inari
Fox Count: Many
First Visit: 23-Aug-2018
Location: Nagano
Address:
Midorichō-1091 Tsuruga, Nagano-shi, Nagano-ken 381-0000

Still close to the Nagano station, I come across this shrine with many little foxes. With two life-sized atone fox guardians and a whole bunch of tiny fox statues of various make, there must be at least four dozen foxes here. The right one of the big foxes features a kit, thus bringing the vixen side count to 9:33.
