Shinjuku - Shinjuku 3chome are longtime shopping quarter, and the prosperity does not change with my high school days for about 40 years.However, since the street is narrow, the development beyond this may be difficult. Because I got used to Shinjuku for nine years with the high school, the university, and the graduate school, I also have much recollections.When the opposition movement against Japan-US Security Treaty ended in 1970, the Oiwake police box was exploded. I want you to see the comment of a photograph.

Yotsuya - Akasakamitsuke - Kasumigaseki
If you walk along a downward slope along a moat from Yotsuya to Akasakamitsuke, a scene will also be changed completely from the quiet Imperial Family's residential area to upper-layers hotels. Marunouchi Line progresses from a Hie Sannou-sha shrine to the Kasumigaseki station through the same course as Chiyoda Line.

When Kourakuen is passed, the buildings of the department of science and engineering of Chuo University rises up on Tomisaka slope. A Kasuga-no-tsubone statue is there and it is written that Kasuga-cho originates in her name. When Tomisaka slope is gone up, there is Dentsuuin temple.
