Nunobiki Falls

Medaki waterfall at Nunobiki Falls, taken around the same time as photographs #2814 and 2827 (Medaki Waterfall of Nunobiki). The presence of the wooden bridge over the river and the teahouse and the absence of a water supply pump suggest that this was taken on the mid-Meiji Period. It seems to be a scene in summer, when many visitors came to enjoy the cool air.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:A.

The Tamadare Falls,Yumoto Spa

This photo was taken with almost the same angle as catalogue #2956, and thus, it was probably taken at the same time. One man is in the fall whereas four women are wearing yukata summer kimono looking at the cascade and cooling themselves. Since the way they are is unnatural, they may have been posed for the photograph. This was taken after 1891 when this waterfall area was made to be Takinomae Park.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number59‐45‐0]

Nunobiki Falls

This is Medaki Waterfall of Nunobiki. This photograph is assumed to have been taken in Mid-Meiji Period around the same time as the photograph #2827 and #4240, as the wooden bridge which surrounds the river and the teahouse were already built. As the caption at the lower right says '1208. METAKI WATERFALL KOBE', this photograph was taken and sold by the photographer Kinbei Kusakabe of Yokohama.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number56‐21‐0]

Nunobiki Falls

This is Metaki Waterfall of Nunobiki. Nunobiki Waterfalls located in the upstream of Ikuta River consist of Otaki, Meotodaki, Tsuzumigadaki. Since the wooden bridge which surrounds the river and the teahouse were not built yet, this photograph is assumed to have been taken in the first half of the Meiji Period.

Nunobiki Falls

The cylindrical stone structure on the right of the Medaki waterfall is a device to draw water from Nunobiki Dam located upstream. Since this facility was constructed in March 1899 to provide water to the city of Kobe, this photograph must have been taken at the end of the Meiji Period. This facility remains today along with Nunobiki Dam, which was completed the following year and later designated as a National Registered Asset.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number88‐4‐0]

A waterfall in Dogashima Island

This is the water fall of Shirabe. The bridge in front of the fall still exists although slightly different in shape. A man wearing yukata summer kimono is standing at the centre of the bridge. The fall became a part of the garden when the Hiramatsu villa was built around 1887 and the water from the fall flows into the pond in the garden. At present this is a part of the garden of Taiseikan Ryokan (Inn).==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:A. Farsari, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number82‐23‐0]

Nunobiki Falls

Medaki waterfall of Nunobiki Falls, taken around the same time as photographs #2814 and #4240 (mid-Meiji Period).
