        The treasure tower at the Okusha,Toshogu Shrine,Nikko

        The tomb of first shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu was placed in the inner shrine at Nikko Toshogu. When the stone pagoda, which had replaced an early wooden structure, was destroyed by an earthquake in 1683, the fifth shogun Tsunayoshi rebuilt it in Chinese-style bronze. The crane-shaped candlestick, censer, and vase were gifts from the king of Korean.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:A.

          Inukimon Gate and the treasure tower at the Okusha,Toshogu Shrine,Nikko

          The Okusha (inner shrine) at Nikko Toshogu contains the tomb of Tokugawa Ieyasu. Above the stone steps is Inuki Gate, behind which the pagoda containing the tomb is visible. Inukimon (Cast Gate) is thus named because its pillars and beams were cast from one mold. The stone pagoda was rebuilt in Chinese-style bronze around the time of fifth shogun Tsunayoshi.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number88‐17‐0]

            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]

              An image of Buddha at the top of Sanmon Gate Building,Chion-in Temple

              Buddhist statues on the Sanmon Gate of Chion-in Temple. The Buddha is seated in the middle, flanked by Zenzai-doji, Shudatsu-choja, and the 16 Buddhist Saints. Unryu (dragons in clouds) and other motifs are painted on the ceiling. This is the largest gate of its kind in Japan, with five bays and three entrances. Built in two-story irimoya style, it has a tiled roof and was erected in 1619 by the second shogun Tokugawa Ietada.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐42‐0]

                The Kaguraden and honden (inner sanctuary),Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine

                The building on the left seems to the Rinzo (sutra repository), which was later demolished. Since there is no tablet visible on the Romon gate and the square foundation stones are placed next to the Kaguraden, this photograph is thought to have been taken around 1870 when the temple buildings were demolished. Taken by Felix Beato.==Date:unknown, Place:Kamakura, Photo:F. Beato, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number62‐32‐0]

                  This photograph was taken from directly below Yomei Gate at Nikko Toshogu Shrine. The building on the left is the Bell Tower. The roofed structure with four pillars next to it houses the Korean Bell. There is a stand-type lotus lantern behind it. The roof of Kamijinko is visible behind.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number67‐37‐0]

                    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.
