Highway Journey" - Metropolitan Expressway Akasaka-mitsuke on Metropolitan Expressway No. 4, representing the scenery of New Tokyo.

Akasaka-mitsuke on Metropolitan Expressway Route 4 is representative of the New Tokyo scenery. After passing through the Chiyoda Tunnel (3,800 meters), where the Miyake-zaka underground interchange is located, the view suddenly widens and one can enjoy a courtyard view of Tokyo. From the well-lit tunnel, the road quickly rises to the elevated tracks, and a dizzying and comfortable roller coaster ride ensues. Here is the true face of the Tokyo highway, which has come into the limelight as the new artery of Tokyo. It was also an Olympic road connecting the Koshu Kaido for marathons, the Yoyogi athletes' village, and the main stadium. （Sunday Mainichi, December 13, 1964, p. 68, 6 Cut from p. 9 *Printed in black and white in "History of the Showa Period for 100 Million People" (7), p. 22 1 in black-and-white
