North Exit Yakyu Inari Shrine 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 It is located in Shinkura, Wako City, and is enshrined near the intersection of North Exit Street and North Exit Ekimae Street near the station. The grounds are surrounded by a wall, but it is a small shrine. It is enshrined in a corner of the mansion of Mr. Tomioka Tsunejiro at the north exit, and although it is still privately owned, the gate is not closed and you can worship freely. It was enshrined in 1920 from Yakyu Inari Shrine in Higashimatsuyama by an enthusiastic group of over 100 people at the time. At Higashimatsuyama Yakyu Inari Shrine, you can see many offerings and votive plaques related to baseball equipment. It is known as a place where many people related to baseball visit, but here baseball balls and other items were offered as stone monuments. ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ••┈┈┈┈ ••✼ ꕥShrine name: Kitaguchi Yakyu Inari Shrine ꕥAddress: 1-2-6 Shinkura, Wako City, Saitama Prefecture ꕥAccess: 🚉 Wako City Station → 5 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈ ••✼ #0 yen travel autumn #Wako City #Shrine #Shrine tour
