The approach to Hakone Shrine

This is the Byobu Torii Gate standing at the entrance to the approach of Hakone Shrine. At present, the gate is no longer there, but a stone monument next to the gasoline station. This is a famous scenic spot and the crossroad from the post town of Hata and from Ashinoyu. It was a popular photo spot during the Meiji Perio and there are many taken with/from the same angle.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number47‐18‐0]

An overall view of the Ashinoyu Spa. The centre is the inn Matsuzakaya. To its right is Yoshidaya. To the left rear is Kinokuniya, and to the front of Kinokuniya is Iseya, to the left is Kameya, and the farthest left is probably Daikokuya. Compared to the photo numbered 5-18, there are fewer houses, so it must be a photo taken before that.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number26‐30‐0]

It is also seen in The Far East vol. 2-15.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number19‐45‐0]
