The twelve-level Ryounkaku,Asakusa
The octagonal tower, Ryounkaku, was designed by British engineer William Kinnimond Burton and completed in October 1890. It is commonly called Junikai (the Twelve Stories). The first ten floors are brick while the eleventh and twelfth floors are wood. Many photographs of Ryounkaku were taken from Oike (Hyotan Pond). This could be the oldest of these photographs. The building on the left is probably a restaurant (possibly Tachibanaya) in Nakanoshima.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number53‐16‐0]
