1032-Omachi Dam / Nagano Pref.

The dam is located just before the "Ogisawa" approach to the Kurobe Dam. This area is a tourist attraction, and there are many things to see and do. Omachi Dam is also a "show" dam, but there are relatively few visitors, perhaps because of the rain. / Gravity concrete dam / 107m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1031-Uchimura Dam

This dam is located near Kakeyu Hot Spring. The Uchimura Dam is located near Kakeyu Onsen, which is famous for its therapeutic baths, and where we stayed when we covered the Kurobe Dam. Perhaps it was because the weather was not so good, but I got the impression that it was very dark. It looked like something was about to come out. / Gravity Concrete Dam / 51.3m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

0975-Fukashiro Dam

A dam where you can meet thick humanity and bees. Fukashiro Dam.

Yamanashi Prefecture Dam

1178-Nagashima Dam

A chalk residence under direct state control, open to the community! As a "dam open to the community," the Nagashima Dam is more open than most dams. I knew the name of the Nagashima Dam, but I had not done much research beforehand, so I had no idea that it was so full of sights. I would recommend that you allow plenty of time for your visit. / Gravity concrete dam / 109m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

1170-Harano valley river dam

A working "dry dam" to control flooding. However, there was plenty of water, perhaps because it was the season of melting snow. I would have liked to see a dry dam, but the dam was functioning well. / Gravity concrete dam / 31m

Shizuoka Prefecture Dam

0870-Sakaigawa Dam / Toyama Prefecture

After passing through the tunnel, there was a dam. The dam is quite spectacular, as it is suddenly visible after passing through the tunnel. Since it is a relatively new dam, the surrounding area is well maintained, making it a great place for a drive. / Gravity concrete dam / 115m

Dam in Toyama Prefecture

0853-Touri Dam

A dam with a sunken village at the bottom of a lake with an unusual orange-colored catwalk. I was glad to have met this dam at the end of my first day of dam coverage during my trip to Kanazawa. / Arch dam / 101m

Dam in Toyama Prefecture

0920-Tedorigawa Dam

One of Japan's leading rockfill dams with excellent facilities. For this report, we arrived from Kanazawa via Route 157. The area around the dam is rich in tourist attractions, such as the Hakusan Super Ring Road, so the dam is also a tourist attraction and has a drive-in element. / Rockfill dam / 153m

Dam in Ishikawa Prefecture

0942-Kuzuryu Dam / Fukui Prefecture

Kuzuryu Dam is one of the most famous rock-fill dams in Japan, so it is probably a major dam for people living in the Chubu and Hokuriku regions. If you are coming from Aichi or Gifu, simply take the Tokai-Hokuriku Expressway from the Shirotori IC to the Aburasaka IC on the Aburasaka Pass Road (Chubu Jukan Expressway), and then drive along Route 158. / Rockfill dam / 128.0m

Fukui Prefecture Dam

3243-Miyagase sub-dam (Ishigoya dam)

Located on the Miyagase Dam site, it is a natural place to visit if you visit the Miyagase Dam. It is not just a sub-dam. It is a perfect dam that serves as a reverse regulating reservoir for a power plant, maintains the water level for the water supply, reduces the force of water discharge from the Miyagase Dam, and even generates electricity. It is not a sub-dam that should be kicked out of existence. It is a dam that works superbly. / Gravity concrete dam / 34.5m

Kanagawa Prefecture Dam

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

Kanagawa Prefecture Dam

0703-Miyagase Dam

A dam open to the community in Kanagawa Prefecture. Miyagase Dam has been developed on a really large scale and offers a wide range of tourist facilities. The Miyagase lakeside parkland has not only a park, but also a shopping area, where visitors can have a meal. There is also a souvenir shop where visitors can purchase local specialties. / Gravity concrete dam / 156m
