No. 77 Nihonbashi (Japan road origin mark)
(It is the Tokyo guide to introduce by the image and the column).

Tokugawa Ieyasu spans with Nihonbashi in 1603 and he plays a role as the starting point of Tokaido, Nakasen-do and the Nikko highway and so on. At present, as the Nippon Road original token, the road number of the kilos is displayed mainly in this Nihonbashi and the display, "being * * km to the starting point (Tokyo)" which is in the going-along of the national road 1 number and No. 4 and No. 6, is a distance to Nihonbashi here. It spanned with the present bridge in 1911 and it is specified by the important cultural asset in the country as the stone 2 ream arch bridge.

* There is "Japan zero milestone" in the place of the mark.
Because Japan zero milestone is at the center at the road, the center of the bridge, because the car is usually running, nearby, it can not see but at the time of the pedestrian mall which is done on the weekend, it can see openly and squarely. Therefore, the copy of the original token is installed in the walkway. Because it spans with the capital freeway according to Nihonbashi river, it is oppressed in the space. It seems as it tries to live even if it is estimated at being Nihonbashi and that will leave an inheritance with historic such as the appearance which is heading for the heaven with the monument at the center of the bridge, too, finding a crack at the viaduct in the coming ages and it is stepped on.
