An entrance to Mt. Suwa

An entrance to Mt. Suwa

Torii gates on the approach to Suwa Shinto Shrine. This was the foremost Shinto shrine of the area since ancient times, and Mt. Suwa, visible to the right (east), was named after it. The shrine compound was designated as a park in 1873, and a hot spring said to have been discovered by an Englishman opened nearby. The sign advertising Needles, Hair Dressing, Hair Oil indicates that this is a general store as well as a hair salon.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number56‐17‐0]

    Torii gates at Fushimi Shrine

    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]

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]

South-North) approach to the temple when facing southeast. The stairs at west of Nakashima Island and a torii gate are present. People originally entered from the west, however, at present the entrance is from the back east side.==Date:unknown, Place:Nara, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo?, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number65‐3‐0]

          The approach to Ikuta Shrine

          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. After the opening of Kobe port in 1868, a foreign settlement was established along the coast, but a railroad line was constructed here in 1874 and the northern area depicted here remained.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number56‐26‐0]
