Nunobiki Falls

Medaki waterfall of Nunobiki Falls, taken around the same time as photographs #2814 and #4240 (mid-Meiji Period). Today, more than a century later, it takes only a few minutes to reach this waterfall from Shin Kobe Station (Sanyo Shinkansen Line). The road on the left is now closed and the wooden bridge has been rebuilt in concrete. Despite the passage of time, the beautiful scenes of the changing seasons can still be enjoyed today.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number56‐31‐2]
