The 18th vulpine side shrine of Fushimi Inari Taisha, and the eleventh within the Kobogataki supercluster, located in the western area. This one is one of the six shrines in this cluster that doesn't have exactly two life sized stone foxes watching over it. Instead, it is one of three that has four of them, two pairs. Curiously, each of them bear a coin on their head, with one having it wedged upright between its ears.
