A gorge along the Katsura River

Hozugawa Valley seen from downstream looking upstream. Since the water level is relatively low and the flow gentle, the camera was probably affixed to a tripod placed in the riverbed.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number52‐6‐0]

A yamakago (mountain palanquin) in the River Otani

Two men carry a woman in a yama-kago (mountain palanquin) across Daiya River. The location is unclear, but the style and type of bridge over the narrow mountain river suggests that it is the gorge near Umagaeshi.==Date:1904, Place:Nikko, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐55‐0]

Nunobiki Falls

Medaki waterfall at Nunobiki Falls, taken around the same time as photographs #2814 and 2827 (Medaki Waterfall of Nunobiki). The presence of the wooden bridge over the river and the teahouse and the absence of a water supply pump suggest that this was taken on the mid-Meiji Period. It seems to be a scene in summer, when many visitors came to enjoy the cool air.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:A.

Kinkakuji Temple

The Golden Pavilion at Rokuon-ji Temple seen from the eastern edge of Kyoko Pond, facing west-northwest. The rock on the left is Hosokawa-ishi, and Ashihara Island is visible behind. The temple was built in 1398 but destroyed by arson in 1950. Unlike the reconstructed building of today, the original roof was supported by many columns at each level. Water weeds fill the surface of the pond. Pine forest surrounds the area. The background is unclear due to the poor colouration. Taken by Tamamura Kozaburo.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number48‐108‐0]

Teahouses along the Koshu Road

The bank of Katsura River, which separated the feudal domains of Sagami and Kai along the old Koshu Highway (present-day Uenohara-machi in southeastern Yamanashi Prefecture), seen from the east side (Sagami side) of the river. The buildings are teahouses standing along the highway, the existence of which is reported in travel journals as early as the Tenpo Period (1830-44). The mountain station Suwa-no-Sekisho (Kuchidome Bansho) is up the slope on the right. Mt. Gongen of Nakura is visible on the other side of Katsura River.==Date:unknown, Place:Yamanashi, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo?, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number65‐10‐0]

Mt. Fuji seen from Iwabuchi,Tokaido Road

Northeastern view of Mt. Fuji from the terraced bank of Fuji River near Iwabuchi, Fujigawa-cho. Rice paddies stretch away from the foot of the hill, and the village of Iwabuchi is visible on the left. Fujigawa Bridge is visible beyond the pine trees on the right of Fuji River. Due to the rapid flow of the river, the bridge was washed away many times. The mountain on the left is Mt. Iwamoto, and pine trees line the other side of the river.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number64‐18‐0]

Arashiyama

The Hozu River, looking upstream from a boat. The low hills in the distance suggest that this is a view of Kameoka Basin. Hozu Gorge, also called Arashi Gorge, stretches about 13km from Hozu Bridge in Kameoka to Togetsu Bridge in Arashiyama. This is a scenic point where rapids and unusual rock formations can be enjoyed. Tributaries such as Kiyotaki River flow into the V-shaped gorge at an altitude of 400m between Mt. Atago and Oisaka.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number46‐110‐0]

Bamboo groove at Gojozaka Slope

A rickshaw driver in a happi coat sits on his rickshaw posing for the camera. Bamboo fencing made of bamboo grass tied to bamboo poles prevents the bamboo from encroaching upon the path. The path is narrow and rickshaws can barely pass each other. Taken prior to 1909, when the slope was expanded to a width of 7.2 meters.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number88‐8‐0]

Hotarujaya and Ichinose-bashi Bridge

Hotarujaya is viewed from the upstream side. Ichinose Bridge is on the right of the teahouse, and the handrail is visible through the trees. The road on the left is Nagasaki Road leading to Himi Pass. A new road stretching from this point to Yagami on the other side of the mountain was constructed in 1882 by the Himi Shindo Co. led by Matsuda Gengoro and eight others. This was Japan's first toll road, charging one sen a person.==Date:unknown, Place:Nagasaki, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number109‐31‐0]
