The 54th vulpine side shrine of Fushimi Inari Taisha, the 47th within the Kobogataki supercluster, and the first in the latter's southern area. This part of Kobogataki is closer to the surrounding forest. Also, this shrine stands out in that for the first time, it doesn't feature a pair of life-sized stone foxes, but rather a pair of tiny white porcelain foxes to watch over it.
