魚神像(撫で魚・舐め魚)

Divine Fish Statue (The Rub-and-Lick Fish)

鳥居をくぐり、参道すぐに出迎える魚神像。撫でてよし、舐めてよし。いっぱい魚が食べられるご利益あり(食べられません)。

Just past the Torii gate, the Divine Fish Statue welcomes you at the start of the approach. Feel free to rub it or lick it! It brings blessings for eating plenty of fish (but please note: the statue itself is not edible!).
