White fox said
Original Text
Yukizuka Inari Shrine is a small shrine located about a 12-minute walk from Honkawagoe Station. Adjacent to Chokiin. I worshiped when I took a walk around the nearby temples and shrines in January. This shrine is a shrine with a white fox legend. In the Edo period, a white fox strayed into the street of this town, and the young people who saw this killed and ate it. The young people immediately fell fever, and a large human soul appeared in the town every night. The townspeople feared that it was a curse of the white fox, and built a company in the precincts of chokiin and built a white fox skin and ...
It is a small shrine next to the gate of Chukiin, but there is a legend about the white fox. In the late Edo period, an incident occurred in which a lost white fox was killed, and it was built to calm the curse. Is it afraid of curse? The approach is bent at a right angle and enshrined. The fox is said to be an envoy of Inari Okami, so it's Inari Shrine.
It is enshrined beside "Chokiin", a quiet alley that is one from the warehouse-style townscape where tourists come and go. The worship hall of Yukizuka Inari Shrine is on the right side of the small precinct shrine "Miminesha" in the back of the torii gate. Based on the legend of the "white fox" that young people ate the white fox that got lost in the vicinity and were cursed, the day when it snowed in the precincts of the old temple "Chokiin" from the Kamakura period, It is named after the remains of the white fox and the mound was built, and it is popular as a local Ujigami.
15 minutes walk from Kawagoe station. A shrine adjacent to Chokiin. It was built in 1823 to calm the curse of the white fox. The deity is Yukizuka Inari Daimyojin. The current shrine was rebuilt in 1897. In front of the torii gate is Mimine Shrine of the precincts, and the shrine of this shrine is located 90 degrees to the right. It is said that there is a benefit to prosperous business.
