A tiny fox shrine within Kodake Jinja (小嶽神社 "Little Peak Shrine") that is located near the tip of the long peninsula from which the causeway to Shikanoshima extends. The eponymous Kodake is just nearby, and peaks at a whopping 21m above sea level. Anyway, four tiny porcelain foxes make their home in this shrine, which is probably an Inari shrine. Also as a note if you want to visit, the shrine is hidden behind the school, and there's a little driveway next to the school that leads up to its entrance.
