    Rice planting

    Rice planting

    Farmers are busy planting rice in flooded paddies near Kyoto. They are barefoot and wearing short kimonos because of the water. The women have their heads covered with hand towels, and the men wear straw hats to protect themselves from the sun. The mountains indicate that the location is either Kameoka, Yamashina, or Minami-Yoshiro. This may have been taken by the British photographer H.G. Ponting.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐23‐0]

            Arashiyama

            Arashiyama (Mt. Arashi) has a height of about 380 meters. It is located on the east edge of the Tanba Highlands and has Torigamine and Yamagamine to the northwest and Mt. Matsuo to the southeast. Hozu River runs from the north to the east at the northern foot of the mountain. A bamboo grove with a brushwood fence is shown at the bank of Hozu River, with hotels in the distance. A rickshaw with a woman passenger stands in front of the grove and a man stands nearby.

                    The precincts of Kasuga Shrine

                    Two men standing on the approach to the sessha (sub-shrine), Wakamiya Shrine, from Kasuga Taisha Shrine are captured, which is the almost the same location as catalogue #4476. Since they have kyahan (leggings) around their ankles, they may be rickshawmen. This photo is the same as #4476 as the fact that this was taken facing north and making Nanmon Gate of Kasuga Taisha as background. However, the point of the shot is a little northerly.==Date:unknown, Place:Nara, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number54‐47‐0]

                      The compounds of an unknown temple. From the magnificent warehouse built in two stories it may be part of Zojoji Temple in Shiba, Tokyo. The edge of the great lantern can be seen in the left corner. The water basin hut is large, and the decorative sink which is probably made of bronze next to the well is also large. The birds in the trees add charm to the photo.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number13‐26‐0]
