A snowscape in Hakone

A snowscape in Hakone

It happens once in a while there is a lot of snow from February to March at Hakone. Depending on the altitude the amount of snowfall is evidently different. There is a snowbelt around the altitude of 300m and 500m and below that line, the snow hardly accumulates. Therefore, this must be higher than Ohiradai and definately not Yumoto or Tonosawa. However, it is difficult to determine the exact location.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐17‐0]

    Seeing cherry blossoms in the Imperial Park

    Stereograph showing people enjoying the cherry blossoms at Nin'naji Temple. A five-story pagoda is visible in the background. Two girls sit facing each other on the platform while enjoying tea. A Buddhist priest is looking at the cherry blossoms. The cherry trees at Nin'naji Temple are of the nioizakura (fragrant cherry) variety. They bloom from the bottom like azaleas and later in the season than other cherry trees. Taken in 1904.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐38‐0]

      The garden of Namikawa's residence

      The south garden of the Namikawa Yasuyuki residence at Sanjo Shirakawa Bridge-agaru is viewed from inside. Mr. Namikawa and a woman with a fan are sitting together on a veranda beside the Japanese kaiyushiki garden designed by Ogawa Jihei. Another woman, possibly a maid, is standing behind the woman, holding a small basket in her left hand. 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 Number97‐27‐0]

        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]
          The Tamadare Falls

          The Tamadare Falls

          Judging from the condition of the trees, this appears to be the Tamadare Waterfall before it was incorporated as Takinomae Park in 1891. The young woman is possibly an employee of a nearby inn. The volume of water is abundant and this photo shows the force of the falls before the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, when half of the fall was destroyed. Currently the falls, which are in the garden of Tenseien Hotel, are open to the public.

            Mt. Fuji topped with snow,seen from Lake Shoji

            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. This was taken by the American stereograph company Underwood & Underwood Co., either in 1896 or between 1903 and 1904.==Date:1904, Place:Yamanashi, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐83‐0]

              Higashi Honganji Temple

              Taishi-do of Higashihonganji Temple is viewed from the southeast. There are many children around the big water fountain. The Taishi-do took 15 years to build. It was completed in 1895 according to the wishes of the head priest, Otani Kosho. Built in single-story irimoya style with a tiled roof, it is 76m wide, 56m deep, 38m high, and covers 3,800 square metres. It is the largest wooden structure in the world.==Date:1904, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐37‐0]
                The Hakone Road

                The Hakone Road

                This is the view from the present-day Iriuda in Odawara City and Yamasaki in Hakone-machi when facing Yumoto. The road is Tokaido Highway (present-day National Route 1) and a cart, rickshaw, and pails are visible. Three children, possibly brothers and sister, are standing. The telegraph pole is on the right. Thus, this photo was taken after 1873 when the line was placed between Tokyo and Nagasaki.==Date:1904, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐8‐0]

                  The Hakone post town and a girl in a palanquin

                  This is the view from Shin-machi of the post town of Hakone when facing Hakone checkpoint. The mountain behind is Komagadake. The street where the palanquin men are is Tokaido Highway (present-day National Route 1). The house on the right is facing toward southwest and a child and an old man are enjoying the sun. Judging from their clothes, it appears to be either late autumn or early spring. The girl on the palanquin is probably a tourist.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐25‐0]

                    Byobu torii gate at the approach to hakone shrine

                    This torii does not stand at present, only a monument next to a petrol station. But it was probably famous during the Meiji era, and many photos remain of this scene. A procession of mountain palanquins and umbrellas is seen, some of the people looking like soldiers. It is scenic spot with a view of Ashino Lake.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number14‐7‐0]
                      Cherry trees at Mukojima

                      Cherry trees at Mukojima

                      The area across Sumida River from Asakusa is Mukojima. There is no official boundary, but area from Mokuboji Temple to Makura Bridge is referred to as Mukojima. The banks of Sumida River at Mukojima are called Sumida-tei or Boku-tei. Cherry trees were planted here during the Kyoho Period (1716-36) by the 8th Shogun Tokugawa Yoshimune, and saplings were planted from time to time thereafter. This area thus became the most popular place to enjoy cherry blossoms in Edo. Taken around 1898.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number53‐40‐0]
