This scenery was given the poetic name Sakuraba Seiran (cherry blossom storm) and was known as one of the eight best scenes of Nagasaki. The area beyond the building on the right, known as Nakagawa Carlsbad, was famous for its cherry blossoms and baths prepared with the same mineral ingredients as those in Carlsbad (present-day Czech Republic).==Date:unknown, Place:Nagasaki, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number109‐18‐0]

                    Rokken-jaya at the lakeside is viewed from the precincts of the Chugushi at Futarasan Shinto Shrine.
