Manganji Temple,Nikko

Sanbutsu-do, the main hall of Rinoji Temple, was formerly part of Nikko Futarasan Shinto Shrine. In response to the official separation of Buddhism and Shintoism in 1871, it was dissembled and rebuilt on its present site in 1881. It enshrines three Buddhist deities: Senju-kannon (1,000-hand deity of mercy), Amida-nyorai and Bato-kannon.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number96‐40‐0]

Ueno Park

This is the street near the southern edge of Ueno Park. It passes in front of Kiyomizu Kan'non-do, where Senju Kan'non (The Thousand Armed Deity of Mercy) is enshrined. There is a hall constructed in an overhang style like the terrace at Kiyomizu Temple in Kyoto. The people walking down the street may be a family. A rickshaw man is apparently offering his services.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number48‐65‐0]
