          Rokuban Yagura (No.6 Watchtower) is on the right, and Sanban Yagura (No.3 Watchtower) is visible behind the bridge. Originally, there were seven watchtowers.

            A deformed rock in Matsushima Bay

            This is a magnificient view of the famous Zaimoku Island, an interesting geological arch formed by erosion. The layered sedimentary rock of this island teaches us much about the origins of Matsushima Bay. Unfortunately, the arch was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 1969. Then an off-shore earthquakein 1978 in Miyagi Prefecture destroyed what remained, and no geographical elements depicted in this photo can be seen any longer.==Date:1904, Place:Matsushima, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐54‐0]

                Going down the Hozu River

                A yakata boat descending Hozu River is seen from the northern bank. The Kyoto Railway Company tracks and a tunnel are visible on the right. People took the approximately 16km boat ride from Hozu Town in Kameoka to Togetsu Bridge in Arashiyama. The river boats that carried lumber and goods from Tanba Kameoka to Kyoto were converted to leisure boats at the end of the Meiji Period when the Kyoto Railway was established. This photograph was taken sometime after August 1899, when the line between Kyoto and Sonobe opened.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐11‐0]

                      A row of Japanese cedar trees along the Nikko Road

                      The cedars along Nikko Highway were donated by Matsudaira Masatsuna on the 33rd anniversary of the death of Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu. The building visible in the background probably stands near Oiwake Jizo. This area was beautiful at the time. The sky is visible between the trees. It is said that people could walk here by the light of the moon and stars.==Date:1904, Place:Nikko, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐7‐0]
