The last fox shrine that I should find on my first exploratory stray through Numazu. This one is located near the shore of Suruga Wan (駿河湾 "Good Horse River Bay"), and is a side shrine of Kongouji (金剛寺 "Vajra Temple"). Within the small shrine building, there are several dozen tiny porcelain foxes, a few of which are gilded.
