A water mill at Hakone

A water mill at Hakone

This is the northeastern view from the present-day parking lot of Miyagino Hojuin Temple. The water mill was taken place by a residential house, but the Setosawa Creek and the waterway on the left side of the water mill still exist today. The site where the palanquin men stand was the rice paddie until around 1975. The mountains far away are Myoujingadake and Hiuchidake.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:A.

        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]

          The Hakone post town and a girl in a palanquin

          This is the view from Shin-machi of the post town of Hakone when facing Hakone checkpoint. The mountain behind is Komagadake. The street where the palanquin men are is Tokaido Highway (present-day National Route 1). The house on the right is facing toward southwest and a child and an old man are enjoying the sun. Judging from their clothes, it appears to be either late autumn or early spring. The girl on the palanquin is probably a tourist.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐25‐0]

                A snowscape in Hakone

                It happens once in a while there is a lot of snow from February to March at Hakone. Depending on the altitude the amount of snowfall is evidently different. There is a snowbelt around the altitude of 300m and 500m and below that line, the snow hardly accumulates. Therefore, this must be higher than Ohiradai and definately not Yumoto or Tonosawa. However, it is difficult to determine the exact location.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐17‐0]
