Dogashima Island

Dogashima Island

This is the spa town of Dogashima. The buildings are from the foreground, Ohmiya, Yamatoya across from it, Maruya is next to it, and then Edoya. The small hall above the stairs is Yamai-yama. Naraya stands behind it. The waterfall on the left is Shirabe and the river on the right is Hayakawa. There is a wooden bridge to cross to Mukoyama. Since the Hiramatsu villa is not visible, this photo was taken before 1887.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:A.

A waterfall in Dogashima Island

This is the water fall of Shirabe. The bridge in front of the fall still exists although slightly different in shape. A man wearing yukata summer kimono is standing at the centre of the bridge. The fall became a part of the garden when the Hiramatsu villa was built around 1887 and the water from the fall flows into the pond in the garden. At present this is a part of the garden of Taiseikan Ryokan (Inn).==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:A. Farsari, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number82‐23‐0]

The Hakone post town

The Hakone post town

The Hiramatsu Villa was located at a corner of Dogashima Spa. Jinshiro Hiramatsu was a banker in Tokyo. He did not quite enjoy the cohlera epidemic in Tokyo in 1886. Consequently, he bought the site of old Naraya Hotel in Dogashima Spa. Pulling water from Shirabe Waterfall, he made a beautiful garden and built a houe with a teahouse and study surrounding it. This is the site of present-day Taiseikan Hotel.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number47‐12‐0]
