About this photo
A large Western-style building with row upon row of windows towers on the left. From in front of it, a procession dressed as civil officials moves along the road toward the back on the right. Whitish shapes and large black shapes mingle in the procession, and at the back on the right, a crowd and a row of low houses stretch on. Several thin lines like utility poles reach up into the sky, and a wide road opens out in the foreground.
According to the history in the same album, Heian Shrine enshrines Emperor Kanmu and was founded in 1895, 1,100 years after the capital was established in Kyoto. The history also touches on the Jidai Festival, describing it as a festival in which the people of Kyoto recreate the customs of more than 1,100 years, from the Enryaku era to the beginning of Meiji.
