Kanagawa Prefecture Dam

0701-Honzawa Dam

The Honzawa Dam was built as part of the Sagami River Comprehensive Development Project for the Shiroyama Dam and an artificial lake for pure pumped-storage power generation. Incidentally, the dammed lake of the Honzawa Dam is "Shiroyama Lake" and that of the Shiroyama Dam is "Lake Tsukui. In other words, the water in Shiroyama Lake (Honzawa Dam) was pumped up from Lake Tsukui (Shiroyama Dam), which is at a lower elevation... and confusing. / Rockfill dam / 73.0m

0700-Shiroyama Dam

Because Shiroyama Dam is close to central Tokyo and to Sagami Lake, which most leisure-seekers in the Kanto region have visited, the surrounding roads are very busy with cars on their way to the dam. National Highway 413 runs above the top of the temple, which may be the only national highway in Japan with such a heavy traffic volume. / Gravity Concrete / 75m

As the name suggests, it is located on the Yokohama Waterworks that carries water from the Sagami River to Yokohama, and is a facility that performs sedimentation treatment of impurities in the water. Because the dam is located within the prefectural Sagamihara Park, it has been designated as one of the "50 best bird-watching spots in Kanagawa" and is an excellent spot for bird-watching. / Earth dam / 18.5m

Tokyo Dam

0692-Ogouchi Dam

First time on our site! A dam in Tokyo. Well, when you think about it, we have come a long way. But it was almost on the border of Yamanashi Prefecture (lol). As one would expect from the capital of Japan, there were a lot of people there. I mean, Lake Okutama was a man-made lake created by the Ogouchi Dam. / Gravity Concrete / 149m
