The urban environment of Tokyo had changed in Meiji era under the dramatic modernization. Landscape experience had also changed in parallel with the process above. The purpose of this article is to clarify the generation of landscape value, related with the change of the urban environment in those days. We analyzed representations of texts in 14 books of Meisho-bon, a guidebook for places of interest, in Edo and Meiji era. There were three characteristics. The one was the interest for structures. The landscape of modern structures was experienced with the same scheme as that of architectures of temples or shrines. The second was the interest for a row of houses along the street. In the middle of Meiji era, that kind of view disappeared in the process of urban development. Afterward, traditional style of old row of houses came to be regarded as beauty. The third was the interest for the townscape. In general, urban landscape of Edo and Meiji Era was principally formed by topographical properties, especially in Edo period. By the change of the urban structures in Meiji era, the beauty of townscape was discovered.
