The Katsura River

The Katsura River

Hozugawa Valley looking upstream. The topography suggests that this was taken from the valley at the west entrance of Asahi Tunnel on the former Japan National Railroad San'in Line, facing northwest. Mt. Ushimatsu is visible in the centre. Since no railroad tracks are visible, the photograph was probably taken before the opening of Sagano-Sonobe Line of Kyoto Railway in August 1899. Taken by Tamamura Kozaburo.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number68‐13‐0]

Fuji can be seen far right.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number59‐36‐0]

Yumoto Spa

Yumoto Spa

This photo was taken after October, 1888 because the building of Odawara Coach Railway can be seen on the right side of the point where Hayakawa and Sukumo Rivers meet. In addition, the fact that the wooden truss Asahi Bridge, which was transferred to a little more upstream in 1893, still connects to Fukuzumi Inn supports that. Behind the river lies Yumoto Spa Town and Mt. Yusaka.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number59‐31‐0]
