Check out this spaghetti bowl just south of Haneda, one of Tokyo's two airports. Switch over to Map view, then back to Satellite. Three underwater tunnels, one of them going 6 or 7 miles underneath Tokyo Bay, all meeting on a landfilled island. Follow the north-bound one up a mile or so to see where it cuts through the middle of the island Haneda is on. Look at the way the road cuts through the airport -- underwater tunnels on both ends. The whole area is one amazing piece of engineering after another.
