      Climing Mt. Fuji

      Pilgrims at the top of Mt. Fuji. There are two craters at the summit (one large, one small), and the caldera surrounds them.

        Mt. Fuji topped with snow,seen from Lake Yamanaka

        Mt. Fuji seen from Lake Yamanaka. The upside-down Fuji is vaguely reflected on the surface. Since the amount of snowfall on the mountain differs from that in photograph #5038, the time of the two photographs is different. A man, probably a fisherman, and someone welcoming him (or seeing him off) can be seen.==Date:1904, Place:Yamanashi, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐6‐0]

          Mt. Fuji topped with snow,seen from Lake Yamanaka

          Mt. Fuji seen from Lake Yamanaka, the biggest of the five lakes at the foot of the mountain. The photograph captures the reflection of Mt. Fuji in the lake and a fisherman in a boat. The location is assumed to be Nagaike at Yamanaka-ko Village in Kitatsuru-gun, Yamanashi Prefecture. It is still a spot from which to enjoy the upside-down Fuji today.==Date:1904, Place:Yamanashi, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐2‐0]

            Southeastern view of Mt. Fuji from Shojiko, one of the five lakes of Fuji in Yamanashi Prefecture. The mountain is snow-capped and the upside-down Fuji and Mt. Omuro are visible on the lake surface.

              The crater of Mt. Aso

              Two men are looking at the rising steam. They are standing on a rock protruding from a slope, not part of the crater of the currently active Nakadake. The English caption suggests that this is a so-called jigoku (hell). Steam, not smoke, is gushing from the crater.==Date:1904, Place:Kumamoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐2‐0]

                Kinkakuji Temple

                The Golden Pavilion at Rokuon-ji Temple seen from the eastern edge of Kyoko Pond, facing west-northwest. The rock on the left is Hosokawa-ishi, and Ashihara Island is visible behind. The temple was built in 1398 but destroyed by arson in 1950. Unlike the reconstructed building of today, the original roof was supported by many columns at each level. Water weeds fill the surface of the pond. Pine forest surrounds the area. The background is unclear due to the poor colouration.

                  Northeastern view of Mt. Fuji from the terraced bank of Fuji River near Iwabuchi, Fujigawa-cho. Rice paddies stretch away from the foot of the hill, and the village of Iwabuchi is visible on the left. Fujigawa Bridge is visible beyond the pine trees on the right of Fuji River. Due to the rapid flow of the river, the bridge was washed away many times. The mountain on the left is Mt. Iwamoto, and pine trees line the other side of the river.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number64‐18‐0]

                    The Miyanoshita Road

                    This is the point where Hayakawa River flows to the left, about the halfway between Ohiradai and Tonosawa. The street on the upper right opened for car traffic between Tonosawa and Miyanoshita in July, 1887. It is the present National Route 1. The mountain on the right is Yusakayama, the one on the left is the foot of Myojogadake, and in the centre is the ridge of Shiroganeyama.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number68‐9‐0]

                      Mt. Fuji seen from the Fuji River

                      Northeastern view of the snow-capped peak of Mt. Fuji, taken from the bank of Fuji River in Iwabuchi, Fujikawa-machi. The mountain on the left is Mt. Iwamoto, and the tree line reaches to the forest of Matsuoka Sui Shinto Shrine (Fuji City) on the left. Two men are at the riverside, and Fujigawa Bridge, which crosses from the south of the shrine to Iwabuchi, is visible. This bridge was washed away many times from the beginning of the Meiji Period. It is difficult to determine exactly when this photograph was taken.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number86‐5‐0]
