      Lake Chuzenji

      Rokken-jaya at the lakeside is viewed from the precincts of the Chugushi at Futarasan Shinto Shrine. The fact that not a single building is visible on the lakeside in the Utagahama area to the right indicates that the photograph was taken in the early Meiji Period. Also, no stone embankment work has been done at the lakeside near Rokken-jaya.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:R.

                Northeastern view of Mt. Fuji from the elevated area of Nonaka in Fujinomiya City. The summit is covered with snow, and Mt. Hoei is visible over the ridge on the right. Houses with thatched roofs stand in the foreground, and a rickshaw is parked on the road. The grove behind the house on the right surrounds the Shinto shrine Fujisan Hongu Sengentaisha.

                  The hundred-step Otokozaka slope at Mt. Atago

                  The stone stairs leading to Atago Shinto Shrine at the top of Mt. Atago. The steps in the centre, Otoko-zaka (Man Slope), are mentioned in old stories and songs as the place where Magaki Heikuro ascended and descended on horseback. The inclination of about 40 degrees seems too steep for a horse. The gently-sloping staircase on the right is Onna-zaka (Woman Slope). There was a third slope called Shin-zaka (New Slope) at the other side of the mountain. One of the photographs in the album sold by Baron Raimund von Stillfried Rathenitz, this may have been taken by Felix Beato in the early years of the Meiji Period.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:R.
