Shows an exterior view of the "Fair Japan" exhibit. There is a mix between Euro-American people and Japanese architecture which denotes the intertwining of America's many cultures.

A street scene features several Japanese-style buildings and pagodas, with signs identifying the area as the “Bazaar of Fair Japan” and “Representatives of Japanese Manufacturers.” A row of rickshaws lines the walkway, while groups of people in Western clothing walk past the exhibits. Banners with Japanese writing hang from tall poles near the entrances.

The Grandeurs of the Exposition, including State Buildings, Midway Scenes, Foreign Buildings, with Typical Buffalo and Niagara Falls Views. Text by Richard H. Barry. Buffalo, N.Y.: Robert Allan Reid, 1901.
