The 90th vulpine side shrine of Fushimi Inari Taisha, and the seventh one
within the Shiragiku-no-Taki cluster. It features the
usual pair of
life-sized stone foxes, with the left one holding a scroll, and the
right one holding an orb. It also has a cut-off tree stump next to it, which is unusual, because normally the trees at shrines are left to grow, sometimes for centuries.
