Muza-chan's Gate to Japan

Hachioji Junction

Tue, April 12, 2011, by Muza-chan
Opened in 2007, Hachiōji Junction is an interchange between the Chūō Expressway, a major roadway connecting Tokyo and Nagoya, and Ken-Ō Expressway (Route 468), a metropolitan expressway, part of a future outer ring road of Tokyo.

It's not much fun when you're actually on the road and it's not impressive on Google Maps either, but when viewed from the height of the Takaosan Station (on the Takao Tozan funicular railway), the junction looks spectacular:
