Casual sightseeing in Tokyo - Inari Shrine near Suitengumae

Another small Inari Shrine discovered in Chuo, near the Suitengumae metro station, hidden among buildings:

The shimenawa drew my attention because of its golden color, which i’ve rarely seen…

If you wish to see it, it’s close to the Tokyo Metro Suitengumae Station, on the Hanzomon Line:

I remember this shrine, as I stayed in the nearby hotel (Royal Park Hotel) for about 2 months before starting my 2 year assignment in Tokyo with my company. Thanks for bringing back some memories!
