第一會場土木交通館

Civil Engineering and Transportation Pavilion, First Venue

Nakajima Park, Sapporo, Hokkaido · 1918 (Taisho era)

Beside a stand of tall, dark trees, a long, one-story pavilion lined with white columns stretches out.

About this photo

The white one-story pavilion extends far to the right of the frame. White columns and dark windows line its front, and midway along rises the roof of a raised entrance. At the left end, dark trees grow tall, and in front spreads an open space of dark ground or lawn.

At the 1918 Hokkaido Exhibition, the First Venue was set up in Nakajima Park in what was then Sapporo Ward, and this Civil Engineering and Transportation Pavilion stood there too, along with the Machinery Pavilion, the Main Agriculture Pavilion and others. Nakajima Park was not the only site, though. The Second Venue's Industry Pavilion was placed elsewhere in Sapporo Ward, at Kita 1-jo Nishi 4-chome.
