Maikono-hama coast

Maikonohama Beach facing inland, taken sometime between the mid- and late-Meiji Period. It is interesting to see the travellers' apparel. There used to be thousands of pine trees here, but today only a fraction remain in Maiko Park. The scenery here changed dramatically in April 198 when the world's largest suspension bridge was built above this site to connect Maiko and Awaji Island.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number85‐29‐0]
