Travelogue in Japan, Nikkō Utsunomiya Road, volume 48

Nikkō Utsunomiya Road
The road is the main access route for Nikkō, a popular getaway for tourists in the north of Tochigi. It connects directly to the Tōhoku Expressway which leads to the greater Tokyo area.
The road is officially designated as a bypass for National Route 119 (Utsunomiya Interchange to Nikkō Interchange) and National Route 120 (Nikkō Interchange to Kiyotaki Interchange). The road is designated for motor vehicles only. The design standard of the road is similar to most national expressways in Japan.
The first section of the road was opened to traffic in 1976 and the entire route was completed in 1981.
The Cedar Avenue of Nikkō (日光杉並木 Nikkō suginami-ki?) is a street in Japan lined with approximately 13,000 cryptomeria trees, known as Sugi, the national tree of Japan. Consisting of three parts converging on the city of Imaichi, the Cedar Avenue of Nikkō is 35.41 kilometers long[1] and is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest tree-lined avenue in the world. The Cedar Avenue of Nikkō is the only cultural property designated by the Japanese Government as both a Special Historic Site and a Special Natural Monument.
Cedar Avenue of Nikkō
The cedar trees were planted approximately 400 years ago by Matsudaira Masatsuna, a feudal lord serving Tokugawa Ieyasu, who donated them to the Nikkō Tōshō-gū. This monumental project was begun around 1625 and required about 20 years to be completed. It is estimated that some 200,000 cedars were planted at this time.
