Another tiny side shrine of Iya Jinja, which is conveniently located right next to the previous one. This one features roughly 5 dozen tiny porcelain foxes, along with three small stone foxes. There's also a pair of tiny Komainu here, which is a rarity: Normally, a shrine is either watched over by either foxes or Komainu, which is probably because foxes and dogs don't really get along.
