Ichiko Dam Parking Lot
This is the first dam in Hyogo Prefecture on this site. We stopped by during our trip to Kobe and Arima Onsen. It was a hot day, but unusually clear and blue sky.
By the way, "Hitokura" is written as "Ichiko". It is a rather difficult-to-read dam. At first, I mistakenly read it as "ikko dam" (laugh).
View downstream from Ichiko Dam parking lot
I think it was close to dusk. I was a bit worried about the distance from Arima Onsen, but I managed to make it in time for dusk.
Rainwater tank "Tensui
The parking lot and the administration office at the dam site are next to each other, and there was a tank like this by the administration office. The name of the tank is "Amamizu," which means "water from the heavens. In other words, rain is a blessing. The management office clearly conveys the wish that people will take good care of water.
Ichiko Dam Management Station
This is an opulent brick-tiled control center. The tank mentioned earlier is located on the right side.
View of the top edge from the right bank
It is a top edge, but why it was not cut more to the right is now a mystery to me. It is now a mystery why the top edge was not cut more to the right.
Monument for the construction of Ichiko Dam
Every time, I am unable to capture a situation such as "a stone monument and a dam lake" or "a stone monument and an embankment" in my photography. I take only pictures of stone monuments, which makes me look unrefined.
View of the downstream bank from the right bank
The sky is so blue it's a lie! It seems as if the concrete is reflected in the sky.
caution sign
I don't know the name of this character...
View of the reduction work from the top edge

View of force reducer and downstream
The downstream bend is almost at a right angle. In the foreground you can seesub-damThe following is a list of the most common problems with the
Stone monument "Blessing of Towa
I would have written "toiwa" in kanji (Chinese characters) "forever," but the secret is to write it in hiragana.
View of the downstream bank from the left bank
Still, it is truly sky blue. Maybe this kind of appearance suits the Ichiko-Dam. But I am sure it will be very active on a day of heavy rain.
Right bank incline
An incline has been installed on the right bank, and the second floor is an observation deck.
View of the dam lake from the right bank observatory
I went up to the observation deck. The one on the right is probably surface aeration, and the one a little to the left from it is probably deep aeration facilities.
View of the embankment on the lake side of the dam from the right bank observation platform
The water level seems somewhat low for the summer season. The gate looks green in color.ordinary flood dischargeThe standard (?) style with an emergency flood discharge in the center of the building. standard (?) style with an emergency flood discharge in the center.
View of the levee from downstream
The embankment can be seen from downstream. The sub-dam seems to be high. Incidentally, this image has been used as wallpaper on my PC for a long time.
Downstream
I wanted to get a flowing shot, but this was the best I could do. There was a bird downstream that I thought was a cormorant, but I am not familiar with birds, so it might have been a heron.
Further downstream
Further downstream. Over there is the "Kyoto-style crab restaurant, Kani-Kobo Kawanishi-Itsuko. I would have liked to eat crab dishes near the dam, but it looked expensive, so I gave it up.
