Lotuses on Shinobazu Pond and a teahouse

This photograph taken half way along the approach to Nakanoshima, the same location as in #4665. However, the length of the pine branches indicates that this photograph was taken later. The teahouse was built on a protruding point of Nakanoshima. Unfortunately, it was destroyed in a 1945 air raid on Tokyo, and this is now part of the pond.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number87‐5‐0]

Cherry trees by Shinobazu Pond

Nakanoshima is an artificial islands in Shinobazu Pond built by Mizutani Isenokami Katsutaka using a small existing island and enlarging it with soil from a hill in Ueno. The Buddhist priest Tenkai built Benten-do to worship Benzaiten of Chikubushima at Lake Biwa, and it was visited by many people over the years. The shrine was destroyed in a 1945 air raid on Tokyo.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number83‐30‐0]

Inokashira Benten

The back of the photograph carried the inscription, Taken at Benten, Inokashira, Tokyo in September 1913. This must be Inokashira, the origin of one of Edo's water supplies. Many trees were planted around Inokashira Pond to preserve the water resources. Inokashira Benzaiten (one of the seven deities of luck) is on a small island called Nakanoshima in the western part of the pond. A Taisho-Period postcard shows Benzaiten with a beautiful thatched roof by a pond. The lack of a pond in this photograph and the simple structure of the house suggest that this is not Benzaiten but a teahouse nearby.==Date:1913, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number72‐23‐0]

The approach to Benzaiten,Shinobazu Pond

Deai-jaya (teahouses for dating) lined the approach to Nakanoshima until 1877. The circumference of Shinobazu Pond was filled in in 1868.

The twelve-level Ryounkaku,Asakusa

The octagonal tower, Ryounkaku, was designed by British engineer William Kinnimond Burton and completed in October 1890. It is commonly called Junikai (the Twelve Stories). The first ten floors are brick while the eleventh and twelfth floors are wood. Many photographs of Ryounkaku were taken from Oike (Hyotan Pond). This could be the oldest of these photographs. The building on the left is probably a restaurant (possibly Tachibanaya) in Nakanoshima.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number53‐16‐0]
