Gosha Inari Shrine is a local Inari shrine dedicated to the Shinto deity of rice, sake, agriculture, and prosperity. The name 'Gosha' (five shrines) suggests this may be a compound shrine housing multiple Inari kami or a shrine with five distinct worship areas. Like other Inari shrines, it likely features fox statues as messengers of the deity and serves the local community's needs for agricultural success and business prosperity.
