The curtain gate to the tomb in Bunsho-in,Zojoji Temple,Shiba

The caption reads temple in Shiba of Tokyo in English, but this is the Shikiri Gate of the Bunshoin (enshrining the tomb of the 6th Shogun Ienori) within the premises of Zojoji Temple in Shiba. The atmosphere at the entrance of the tomb can be observed. The guard still wears a mage (hair worn by men in a pony tail).==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Kusakabe Kinbei, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number3‐23‐0]

    The gate to Takanawa Tozenji Temple,the British Legation

    The gate to Takanawa Tozenji Temple,the British Legation

    This stereograph bears the caption View taken from the United States Legation, at Yedo and is said to depict Tempukuji Temple in Azabu, but this is incorrect. The temple is actually Tozenji, located in present-day Takanawa 3-chome. The Shogunate concluded a treaty pact with Great Britain (Anglo-Japanese Treaty of Commerce) in 1858, and Tozenji Temple was designated as the site of the British Legation. This was taken by Swiss Pierre Rossier at the end of the Edo Period. This is a side view of the sanmon gate, also seen in photographs #3420 and #3443.==Date:1859, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Pierre Rossier, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number70‐7‐0]

      The gate to Takanawa Tozenji Temple,the British Legation

      Tozenji Temple became the site of the British Legation in 1859 and Sir Rutherford Alcock was the first envoy. The legation was attacked on May 28th, 1861by Mito Clan samurai demanding the expulsion of foreigners, and several people were killed or injured (Tozenji Incident). Bullet holes and sword marks still remain in the study and the entrance of the temple. This was taken around the same time as photograph #3421.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Pierre Rossier, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number70‐6‐0]

        Cherry trees at Shiba Park

        The front gate of Zojoji Temple at Shiba is visible on the far left. The Tokyo City Railway Mita-Hibiya Line opened here in June 1904, but no train tracks are visible in this photograph. The photographer, Herbert George Ponting, visited Japan once in 1896 and again in 1903. The caption on the lower right saying Copyright 1904 indicates that he took this photograph during the second visit. This photograph was also used as a motif for picture postcards.==Date:1904, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐76‐0]

          The curtain gate to the tomb in Bunsho-in,Zojoji Temple,Shiba

          The Shikiri Gate dividing the Hall of Worship and the inner shrine at Bunshoin Mausoleum is seen from the Hall of Worship. The inner shrine was designed in a straight line from this gate all the way up to the pagoda in the deepest part of the mausoleum. Later, the tombs of the 12th Shogun Ieyoshi and 14th Shogun Iemochi were added, but the location of the inner shrine remained the same.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number80‐30‐0]

            Kagami-ike (Mirror Pond), Todaiji Temple

            This is Kagami-ike (Mirror Pond) located at the southeast of Chumon Gate of Todaiji Temple. Since Mt. Wakakusa is visible afar, this is the view from the Nanboku (lit. South-North) approach to the temple when facing southeast. The stairs at west of Nakashima Island and a torii gate are present. People originally entered from the west, however, at present the entrance is from the back east side.==Date:unknown, Place:Nara, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo?, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number65‐3‐0]

                Gate of main entrance of a shrine

                From the structure of the gate and the arrangement of the stone lanterns, this is probably the south gate of the Kasugataisha. Women and men of various generations look at the camera. It is probably a commemorative photo of a family coming to worship.==Date:unknown, Place:Nara, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number31‐67‐0]
