Shiraito Falls

Distant view of Shiraito Falls. Water wells up from the 20 meter-high lava bed which stretches for two hundred meters, and spills over as hundreds of white threads into the basin below. The water creates Shiba River and flows into Fuji River. These falls were designated as a National Scenic Spot in 1936.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:A.

        The stage of Kiyomizudera Temple,Kyoto

        Balcony of the main hall of Kiyomizu Temple seen from Okuno-in, facing west-northwest. Among the sightseers there are women with parasols. It is probably the beginning of summer because the trees are lush with leaves. The terrace was renovated in 1633. The building is in the yosemune style, and the roof is made entirely of hinoki tree bark. Wings flank the west side and the east and west of the south side. Jinushi Shinto Shrine is partially visible behind the main hall. The wooden fencing inside the railing was apparently installed to prevent people from falling.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:A.
