244 ~ Asamiya Jinja

 

Japanese Name:  朝宮神社
Romanized Reading: Asamiya Jinja
English Translation: Morning Hall Shrine
Size: Small side shrine of Oogamiyama Jinja
Deity: Inari?/Amaterasu?
Fox Count: 6
First Visit: 23-Sep-2018
Location: Odaka
Address:
1025 Odaka, Yonago, Tottori 689-3514
Coordinates:
35.4176019,133.4059709

A small fox shrine that I should find on my return trip from climbing Mt. Daisen. This one is a side shrine of Oogamiyama Jinja (大神山神社 "Great God Mountain Shrine"), and there's a tiny lone foxy sitting in front of it, making a kinda lost impression. As such, I figure that the chance of it enshrining Inari is actually pretty low. Another educated guess from the name might be Amaterasu, but without a clear indication, both of these are just guesses.
