The first fox shrine that we should find on our trip from Nara to Ise, while walking south from our accommodation towards the Kyoubate (京終 "Capital End") Station. This one is a side shrine of Saikoin (西光院 "West Light Temple"), and is a three-in-one shrine solution, with one roof that houses one tiny shrine flanked by two even tinier shrines, flanked by 2 small porcelain foxes for the middle shrine and 2 tiny porcelain foxes for each of the shrines to the sides.
