A cargo boat on the Nihonbashi River

View of Nihonbashi River looking west, taken from Nihonbashi Bridge. The river is busy with cargo boats. Mt. Fuji was visible from this spot on clear days. The left side of the river is Nishi-gashi (west riverside), and the bridge visible in the far right is Nishi (West) Bridge. This was a transitional period when land transportation was replacing water transportation, but at this time the canal still played a major role in transporting goods. This stereograph was published in 1904 in a book-shaped case.==Date:1904, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐78‐0]

The Kamaguchi-bashi,a suspension bridge over the Fuji River

View, facing south, of the suspension bridge over Kamaguchi Gorge (a rugged section of Fuji River) between Naganuki in Shibakawa-cho and Setojima. The rapid flow of Fuji River makes bridges difficult to maintain. During the Edo Period, this was the only bridge over the river. Both banks are cliffs, and the width of the river is at its narrowest here. Several people are on the bridge, which is made of wisteria vines and planks. There is also a suspension bridge made only of vines.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:A. Farsari, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number82‐51‐0]

Mt. Fuji seen from the Fuji River

During the Edo era, the lack of sophisticated civil engineering techniques made the construction of bridges impossible over many rivers. Fuji River was one. There were no bridges, and travelers had a hard time crossing the river.
