Rokusho Jinja is a small but very beautiful shrine close to Sengawa Station. The main building is framed with two guardian dogs, while the smaller building on the left side has two guardian foxes. All of the stone statues are partly covered with moss and add a nice green to your pictures. On a weekend or public holiday your visit might be a bit more quiet since Rokusho Jinja is in between two schools.
