0000-Sasado weir

The Sasado weir is an intake weir that leads water to the Sasado Power Plant about 6 to 7 km downstream from here. Therefore, the "Sasado" of Sasado weir seems to have been named after the power plant, not after the place. As proof of this, the area around this weir is called "Kowatari. / Gravity Concrete

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

1204-Umagajo Dam / Aichi, Japan

Looking at the dam handbook, I discovered that there is a municipal dam in Seto City. Moreover, I heard that a certain master could not go there, so I skipped the road I was used to driving and went there, to Magajo Dam. It is also a dam that has a dam version of the Expo 2005 Aichi Japan, and if I were the president of the Expo Association, I would make this the site of the Expo. / Gravity Concrete / 16.6m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

0000-hyakketsu dam/duzuki dam

To reach Momotsuki Dam, drive National Route 153 toward Asuke if you are coming from Toyota City, and go straight north on Prefectural Route 11 without crossing the Hirado Bridge. It is not a dam in the narrow sense of the word, as the embankment height is no more than 15 meters. / Gravity Concrete

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

0000-asuri dam

When driving along the upper reaches of the Yahagi River on Prefectural Road 11 from Toyota City, you will see it on your right. The dam (weir) is small in size but has a distinctive red gate. The dam (weir) is equipped with a fish passage, which seems to be environmentally friendly, but it is unknown how many fish actually pass through it. Since the height of the embankment is less than 15 m, it is treated as a weir. / Gravity Concrete

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

3126-Kise Dam

It is a relatively new dam and has basic facilities as it is "open to the community". As a small dam, I personally did not expect much, but it seems to be a good spot to enjoy barbecue parties and fishing. / Gravity Concrete / 33m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

122-Habu Dam

There is a parking lot, but all of them were full, so we parked at the top end. Come to think of it, this is the only dam where you can park at the top end. The toilet is not available unless you go to the boat ramp, but it may be a bit far away. / Gravity Concrete / 62.5m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

1199-Koshido Dam

The area around the dam is called "Kanpachi Gorge," which used to be a scenic spot famous for its cherry blossoms. However, although there are remnants of the old days, the area is not as bustling as it used to be, and it is deserted. Even cars speeding down the national highway pass through here without a care in the world. At most, people come here to take a walk or go jogging. / Gravity Concrete / 22.8m

1230-Tominaga Dam

It is small in scale and is not even shown on maps, so it is a dam that stands quietly and unnoticed. The Kuroda Dam and the Yahagi Dam are conspicuous, making it look like a middle-management window-dweller. / Gravity Concrete / 32.5m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

1235-Oshima Dam

I should say that the interaction with the local people was a more valuable experience than the dam itself. When I was covering a dam and taking pictures, people usually looked at me suspiciously because I was not taking pictures in a commemorative way, but I had never been talked to before, so it was a good experience. I had never had anyone talk to me before, so it was a good experience for me. / Gravity Concrete / 69.4m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

1010-Miwa Dam / Nagano Pref.

The lower right bank was completely dried up and what looked like an incline in the back was not functioning. The real problem is not so much that it has dried up, but rather that the sediment is very bad. / Gravity Concrete / 69.1m

The facilities are standard, but very quiet. The access road is not well-developed, and it is not listed on some maps, or is not prominent at all. It is a hidden character in the Mikawa region. / Gravity Concrete / 21.5m

After visiting the Susohana Dam, we paid a visit to Zenkoji Temple, and on the way back, we took Route 19 along the Saigawa River to visit the dams along the Saigawa River! I planned to visit the dams along the Saigawa River on my way back to Zenkoji Temple. The plan worked, and we headed south upstream from here. / Gravity Concrete / 21.3m

1033-Yokogawa Dam / Nagano Pref.

The dam lake is frozen solid. It looks thickly frozen, but I think it is actually thin, so skating is definitely not allowed. Even though it was frozen, the water was discharged from the gate. / Gravity Concrete / 41m
