This may have been taken by the British photographer H. G. Ponting.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐33‐0]

        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 flags on the right are advertising motion pictures, indicating that this photograph was taken after 1897. Since telephone poles are visible only in photographs depicting the Sumi-za area around the year 1907, this photograph was undoubtedly taken close to that date.==Date:1904, Place:Osaka, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐44‐0]

                Interior of the main hall of Kiyomizu Temple, facing east, with huge symmetrically arranged columns and various sized ema (votive picture tablets) donated by temple followers hanging from the ceiling. Since the ema at the top of the column in the left foreground was offered in November 1887, this photo was taken sometime after that date. Sunlight enters from amid the columns to the right.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number52‐32‐2]

                    The Sanmon Gate at Sensoji Temple

                    The Sanmon Gate at Sensoji Temple

                    The sanmon (front gate) at Sensoji Temple was called Niomon because statues of the guardian deities Kongo Rikishi were installed on both the right and left (present-day Hozomon). Statues of Monju Bosatsu (Manjusri Bodhisattva) and Shiten (four angels) are installed on the second floor of the gate building. The plaque Sensoji is based on calligraphy by the head priest of the Tendai Sect, Ryosho Hoshin-o. This photograph was taken before brick buildings were erected in the Nakamise commercial area in 1885.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐123‐0]

                      The stage of Kiyomizudera Temple,Kyoto

                      Balcony of the main hall of Kiyomizu Temple seen from Okuno-in, facing west-northwest. Among the sightseers there are women with parasols. It is probably the beginning of summer because the trees are lush with leaves. The terrace was renovated in 1633. The building is in the yosemune style, and the roof is made entirely of hinoki tree bark. Wings flank the west side and the east and west of the south side. Jinushi Shinto Shrine is partially visible behind the main hall. The wooden fencing inside the railing was apparently installed to prevent people from falling.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:A.
