Japan of 100 years ago is praised by many tourists as peaceful and vibrant, no less attractive than modern Japan.
 |
| A set of photos of Japan 100 years ago taken by scholar and photographer Arnold Genthe and recently published in foreign newspapers has attracted much attention from tourists - those who always love the land of cherry blossoms. |
 |
| Arnold Genthe was an American of German descent. He spent most of his life traveling around the world. |
 |
| Accompanying him is a camera - an item he uses to record every daily moment in the lives of people in the places he visits. |
 |
| These pictures of Japanese life and people were taken by him in 1908 during his 6 months living here. |
 |
| Black and white images capture the peaceful life of Japanese people before World War II changed everything. |
 |
| Japan today is bustling, modern and prosperous, but when looking at pictures of the feudal period, people still cannot help but reminisce about the peaceful, quiet life of the past. |
 |
| These photos were taken by the author during the Meiji period. |
 |
| Although these photos were taken a long time ago, they still attract the attention of many people who admire them. |
