下ノ町から山の中腹まで登った所にあり、伏見稲荷大社より勧請されたといわれ、創建は少なくとも江戸時代中期まで遡れます。商売繁盛の神様として信仰され、秋の大祭には「おひたき」の神事が行われてきました。On the mountain slope near the Shimoncho entrance to Kumagawa-juku you will find Nishiyama Inari Jinja Shrine. It was built sometime in mid-Edo Period (1603–1867) and is dedicated to Inari, a deity of agriculture and commerce. The spirit of Inari is said to have been brought directly from Fushimi Inari Taisha, the head Inari shrine located in Kyoto. Each autumn, Nishiyama Inari Shrine holds an ohitaki ritual where wooden sticks with people’s prayers written on them are burned in a sacred fire.
