Now the astonishing speed of reconstruction highlights Japan's ability to get back on its feet. Work began on March 17 and six days later, the cratered section of the Great Kanto Highway in Naka was as good as new and ready to re- open to traffic. A road in Naka, Ibaraki prefecture, Japan: left, how it was on the day of the earthquake; right, six days later (17 March) after rapid repairs.
