Kinkakuji Temple

Kinkakuji Temple

The Golden Pavilion at Rokuon-ji Temple seen from the western edge of Kyoko Pond, facing east-northeast. The rock in the pond on the right is Akamatsu-ishi. Kameyama-ishi is visible in the left foreground with Dejima behind it. The temple was built in 1398 destroyed by arson in 1950. Unlike the reconstructed building of today, the original roof was supported by many columns at each level. The pavilion looks dilapidated, perhaps due to the poor colouration.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number90‐4‐0]

      Five-story pagoda at Hokanji Temple

      The five-story pagoda of Hokanji Temple is viewed facing east. There are many visitors on the temple approach, and a gas light is visible. The pagoda, also called Yasaka Tower, was built in 1440 by Ashikaga Yoshinori and underwent major repair work in 1618. Featuring a tiled roof, it is 40m tall and 5.5m wide. 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 Number97‐33‐0]

              Hotta Garden,Mukojima

              This is Shichishoen at Mukojima, the villa of the Hotta family, former feudal lords of the Sakura Clan. The villa was owned by the family from 1868 to 1887. Of kaiyushiki (garden with a pond and promenade style), the garden was watered by the Sumida River and changed according to the tides. It was referred to as one of the best gardens in Tokyo. The people posing for the photograph are probably members of the Hotta family.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number59‐4‐0]

                Hotta Garden,Mukojima

                The water level here is higher than in photograph #4442. The landscaped rocks by the shore are underwater and the garden looks different. A banner with the crest of the Hotta family is visible over the wisterias on the far left. The neighbour's tiled roof visible over the foliage in the centre is not apparent in #4442. Thus, this photograph must have been taken somewhat later.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number80‐26‐0]

                  This is a scene of the Sakurababa and Irabayashi neighbourhoods near the fork of Nakashima River and Narutaki River (present-day Nakanohashi bridge). 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]

                    Interior of the main hall of Kiyomizu Temple, facing east, with huge symmetrically arranged columns and various sized ema (votive picture tablets) donated by temple followers hanging from the ceiling. Since the ema at the top of the column in the left foreground was offered in November 1887, this photo was taken sometime after that date. Sunlight enters from amid the columns to the right.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number68‐18‐0]
