A view of the Goji-in plain outside Ichihashi-mon Gate

A view of the Goji-in plain outside Ichihashi-mon Gate

View of Shimizu-mon (gate) located half-way up Kudan-zaka (in front of Tayasu Gate). The gate visible in the centre back is Shimizu-mon. Since the gate was destroyed in 1873, this photograph must have been taken before that date. The building on its right is the guardsmen's artillery station at Takebashi. The moat in the foreground was called Ushigafuchi (Bull Ravine). The Shinsen Tokyo Meishozue (Newly Selected Famous Places of Tokyo) states that, A bull and cart carrying coins went down into the moat and never came up, and this is the origin of the name. When attached to photograph #4003, this becomes a continuous panoramic scene.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:R.

    A view of the city of Kobe from Mt. Suwa

    Like #4949 and #4950, this is a stereograph made by the American company Underwood & Underwood. View from Mt. Suwa facing southwest. The cylindrical building on the right is science building of Eiwa Girls School (present-day Kobe Jogakuin School before relocation) completed in 1893. The caption saying that the company obtained the publishing rights in 1904 indicates that the photograph was taken between 1893 and 1904.==Date:1904, Place:Kobe, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐15‐0]
      The twelve-level Ryounkaku,Asakusa

      The twelve-level Ryounkaku,Asakusa

      While Rokumeikan, built around the same time, is a representative building of the nobility, Ryounkaku was a building for the common people. At a time when tall buildings were all but nonexistent in Tokyo, it was one of the few portrayed by photographers in vertical composition. This photograph provides a rare view of Ryounkaku reflected in Oike Pond. The top half of Ryounkaku was destroyed in the Great Earthquake of 1923 and the rest of the building was later demolished. This is Ryounkaku soon after its completion in October 1890.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number55‐38‐2]

          Odawara Castle

          Odawara Castle

          This is the Minami-Kuruwa area of Odawara Castle, site of present-day Odawara City Museum. This photograph was taken from the front gate of Sannomaru Primary School (the old Honcho Primary School). Since the main castle's donjon is not visible, it must have been taken after November 1871 when the tower was disassembled and sold. The bridge in the foreground is Ochatsubo-bashi (the official name is Komine-bashi). It received this name (which means tea jar bridge ) because the tea brought to the shogun during the Edo period had to come across this bridge.==Date:unknown, Place:Odawara, Photo:R.

            The city of Kofu

            The city of Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture, seen from Kofu Castle, facing south. The Western-style buildings in the foreground are part of a winery constructed in 1876 in the metal-casting foundry, part of an industrial complex established in Kofu Castle by then-governor Fujimura Shiro. Consequently, the date of the photograph is assumed to be the early Meiji Period. Visible in the background are Sone Hill and Mt. Misaka, located at the southern edge of the Kofu Basin. Mt. Fuji is also visible on the far left.==Date:unknown, Place:Kofu, Photo:A. Farsari, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number82‐46‐0]

              A distant view of Yokohama Station

              This is the original Yokohama Station designed by American architect R. P. Bridgens and built in 1871. The building is of stone and wood construction. This is the site of present-day Sakuragi-cho Station. Since the bridge is of iron construction, this photograph must have been taken after 1885. The shack by the river is a public lavatory.==Date:unknown, Place:Yokohama, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number92‐4‐0]

                View of the waterfront street in the mixed residential area (present-day Chuo Ward) after the typhoon of July 4, 1871. Taken from the Meriken Wharf, facing west.

A photograph taken from the same spot and about the same time was published in the July 17, 1871 issue of The Far East.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number56‐3‐0]

                    The approach to Enkakuji Temple,Kamakura

                    The approach to Enkakuji Temple,Kamakura

                    View of the Enkakuji Temple entrance area from the site of present-day Kita-Kamakura Station. There are two gates facing the street in front of the temple. The one in the background is the southeast gate. The temple is on the other side of the bridge. A horse road passes behind the mound on the right. It is possible that commoners were forbidden to use this gate during the Edo Period. The rickshaw in the centre seems to be an early model, indicating that this photograph was taken at the beginning of the Meiji Period.==Date:unknown, Place:Kamakura, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number86‐8‐0]

The date is around 1897, near the end of the foreign settlement period.==Date:unknown, Place:Nagasaki, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number105‐45‐0]
