The Tamadare Falls,Hakone

The Tamadare Falls,Hakone

A woman and two palanquin men are watching Tamadare Falls at Hakone Yumoto. Judging from the appearance of the place, this photo was taken after 1891 when this place became Takinomae-Yuen Park by the entrepreneur Takashi Koyasu. Since it is written Ichinoyu on the hanten jacket worn by the palanquin man, it is assumed that a woman staying at the shinise (long-standing) inn Ichinoyu at Tonosawa Spa is visiting here.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐34‐0]

A snowscape in Hakone

A snowscape in Hakone

It happens once in a while there is a lot of snow from February to March at Hakone. Depending on the altitude the amount of snowfall is evidently different. There is a snowbelt around the altitude of 300m and 500m and below that line, the snow hardly accumulates. Therefore, this must be higher than Ohiradai and definately not Yumoto or Tonosawa. However, it is difficult to determine the exact location.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐17‐0]
