Nunobiki Falls

Nunobiki Falls

Medaki waterfall at Nunobiki Falls, taken around the same time as photographs #2814 and 2827 (Medaki Waterfall of Nunobiki). The presence of the wooden bridge over the river and the teahouse and the absence of a water supply pump suggest that this was taken on the mid-Meiji Period. It seems to be a scene in summer, when many visitors came to enjoy the cool air.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:A.

Waterfalls at Miyanoshita

Waterfalls at Miyanoshita

This is the same spot of the Jakotsu River as illustrated in the Mannen Bridge of Hakone Sokokura Yumoto(1880) by Kiyochika Kobayashi. Supposing that this was taken from Mannen Bridge, judging from the angle, this may date to between 1873, when the bridge was built, and 1889 when the bridge was gone.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:R.

This is Medaki Waterfall of Nunobiki. This photograph is assumed to have been taken in Mid-Meiji Period around the same time as the photograph #2827 and #4240, as the wooden bridge which surrounds the river and the teahouse were already built. As the caption at the lower right says '1208. METAKI WATERFALL KOBE', this photograph was taken and sold by the photographer Kinbei Kusakabe of Yokohama.==Date:unknown, Place:Kobe, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number56‐21‐0]

The Kirifuri Falls,Nikko

The Kirifuri Falls,Nikko

Falls plunging into Kirifuri River, which runs to the east of Nikko Kirifuri Highlands. Kirifuri Falls, which is one of the three famous falls of Nikko, has two parts, the Ichinotaki upstream and Ninotaki downstream. The Ninotaki received its name because it crashes into a rock and splits into two, creating a mist-like spray. The person standing downstream emphasizes the size of the falls.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number9‐16‐0]
