Description: Hiroshige's design of Asakusa in the rain, is still a very realistic scene today, with a few changes in the locations of the buildings that are depicted.

Sensoji Temple is shown on the left side of the design, with the torii gate to the Sansha Shrine, right next to it. The red gate on the right side of the torii gate is the Daijinmon Gate. The building in the center, in front of the trees, is the Ema Hall, and in the background, you can see the famous five-story pagoda towering over the trees. The pagoda has been moved to the right side of the Hozomon Gate, which you can see on the right. Today, the pagoda is still located here, which is almost in the same spot as the viewing point of this design.

This version is a post-war reproduction by Yuyudo.
