Kaeru Jinja is a shrine dedicated to frogs - froggy shrine! You might already know I have a soft spot for animal themed shrines šø Kaeru means frog and "gero" is the sound of frog croaking so it made sense that the frog became the unofficial town mascot. You can find them all throughout Gero: on manholes, in souvenir shops and even hopping across the street!
