                    The gate to Takanawa Tozenji Temple,the British Legation

                    This stereograph bears the caption View taken from the United States Legation, at Yedo and is said to depict Tempukuji Temple in Azabu, but this is incorrect. The temple is actually Tozenji, located in present-day Takanawa 3-chome. The Shogunate concluded a treaty pact with Great Britain (Anglo-Japanese Treaty of Commerce) in 1858, and Tozenji Temple was designated as the site of the British Legation. This was taken by Swiss Pierre Rossier at the end of the Edo Period. This is a side view of the sanmon gate, also seen in photographs #3420 and #3443.==Date:1859, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Pierre Rossier, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number70‐7‐0]

                      The gate to Takanawa Tozenji Temple,the British Legation

                      Tozenji Temple became the site of the British Legation in 1859 and Sir Rutherford Alcock was the first envoy. The legation was attacked on May 28th, 1861by Mito Clan samurai demanding the expulsion of foreigners, and several people were killed or injured (Tozenji Incident). Bullet holes and sword marks still remain in the study and the entrance of the temple. This was taken around the same time as photograph #3421.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Pierre Rossier, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number70‐6‐0]
