About this Shrine

藤ヶ森稲荷神社, located in Aomori Prefecture, is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the rice goddess Inari Ōkami. This shrine is situated within the scenic Fujiwara Forest, known as Fujikage, which is believed to be the dwelling place of the kami. The shrine's architecture reflects traditional Japanese design, with a distinctive haiden (main hall) and honden (main shrine). Visitors can explore the forest paths, which offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains and the shrine grounds.

Cultural Significance

As an Inari shrine, Fujikage is famous for its many fox statues and shrine markers called 'kitsune-bashi'. According to legend, these kitsune (fox spirits) are believed to be messengers of the rice goddess. During the autumnal equinox festival, visitors can make offerings to the kami at the shrine.
