Ferry boat

The embankment at Biwajima Benten was a landing spot for ferries crossing Hiragata Bay to Nojima. Most of the passengers are probably pilgrims from the Boso Peninsula traveling to Oyama. Today, Biwajima Benten is the last station on the Kanazawa Seaside Railroad Line. The byakushin trees (Juniperus chinensis) with white trunks in the photograph are still thriving today near Kanazawa Hakkei Station.==Date:unknown, Place:Yokohama, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number92‐44‐0]
