The approach to Hakone Shrine

The approach to Hakone Shrine

This is the shrine approach going down toward Lake Ashinoko viewed from the main building of Hakone Shrine. There are many cedar trees in the area just as the cedars line along the approach as well as Yatateno-sugi and Anzan-sugi in the shrine precincts and Sakasa-sugi by the Lake Ashinoko. The late afternoon sun is hitting the approach. Two workers are visible.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number47‐17‐0]

      A row of Japanese cedar trees along the Nikko Road

      The Nikko Highway is lined with cedar trees. Nikko was known for heavy rainfall, and its streets tended to get muddy, creating problems for both vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The photograph captures rickshaws, vendors, travelers, people with umbrellas, and an electric pole behind them.==Date:1904, Place:Nikko, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐57‐0]

        The cedars along Nikko Highway were donated by Matsudaira Masatsuna on the 33rd anniversary of the death of Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu. The building visible in the background probably stands near Oiwake Jizo. This area was beautiful at the time. The sky is visible between the trees. It is said that people could walk here by the light of the moon and stars.==Date:1904, Place:Nikko, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐7‐0]

          Torii gates at Fushimi Shrine

          The red Senbon Torii (one thousand gates) along the eastern approach to Fushimi Inari Taisha are viewed looking southeast. The approach starts at Kamigoden Hall on the east side of the shrine precincts and stretches in a southeasterly direction to the foot of Mt. Inari, Myobusha. There are many visitors. The man on the lower left may be a beggar. The marks on the torii gate indicate that this photograph was taken after February 1889, probably by British photographer H. G. Ponting.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐36‐0]

                Byobu torii gate at the approach to hakone shrine

                This torii does not stand at present, only a monument next to a petrol station. But it was probably famous during the Meiji era, and many photos remain of this scene. A procession of mountain palanquins and umbrellas is seen, some of the people looking like soldiers. It is scenic spot with a view of Ashino Lake.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number14‐7‐0]

                    The approach to Ikuta Shinto Shrine taken around the turn of the 20th century. Formerly referred to as Ikuta-no-Baba, this was a scenic path lined with plum and cherry trees and stretching for about 870 meters from the shrine to the beach.
