Kiyomizudera Temple,Kyoto

View (from the left) of Okuno-in, Amitabha Hall, and the main hall of Kiyomizu Temple, looking from the south garden. Mt. Otowa is visible in the background. A number of trees had been planted, but the South Garden was not as yet complete. The cherry trees and maple trees stand at irregular intervals, and the temple approach has not yet been made. This photo is thought to have been taken before 1898 when regular temple maintenance procedures were established.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number80‐6‐0]
