1330-Hinachi Dam

It is a thick-boned dam. But it is also somewhat feminine. It is a motherly dam. Well, here we are, at a dam in Mie Prefecture after a long absence, and it's 7:30 in the morning. It was 7:30 in the morning, and it had been a long time since I visited a dam in the morning. It was when the cherry blossoms were about to fall. Anyway, it is huge. It's been a long time since I've seen a gravity dam this big. / Gravity concrete / 70.5m

Dam in Mie Prefecture

1316-Shorenji Dam

If you want a clear view downstream, bring your own stepladder. But be careful not to be mistaken for the Seirenji Dam. It looks somewhat like the slightly smaller Yahagi Dam or Amagase Dam. / Arch / 82m

Dam in Mie Prefecture

1318-Kamiji Dam

Amano-Iwato, where Amaterasu is said to have shut herself away, is located further upstream from this dam. The weather is so bad that we think Amaterasu must have retreated to Amano-Iwato at this very moment.... / earth / 29.6m

Dam in Mie Prefecture

1323-Nakazato Dam

Nakasato Dam is located near the source of water for the Mie Water Supply under the control of the Japan Water Agency (former Japan Water Development Corporation), and serves to guide water when the water in the Miyagawa, Komono, and Kasato dams' regulating reservoirs is insufficient. In other words, it is the parent of these dams. / Earth / 46m

Dam in Mie Prefecture

1127-Agigawa Dam

By all means, drive around the dam lake as well as the embankment. There is a water park, putting golf course, cottages (I heard you can stay overnight), free tennis court (although no one uses it...), etc. It is very well-developed. I heard that you can eat Hida beef at the nearby Tono Farm. They also have a cave... / Rockfill / 101.5m

Dam in Gifu Prefecture

1108-Yahagi Dam (Yahagi Daiichi Dam)

During the touring season, the number of motorcycles is very high and the number of visitors has increased considerably due to the recent dam boom. The embankment is also accessible to automobiles and serves as a bridge. Come to think of it, I once saw a "wild boar" near the dam around spring. Please be careful... / arch / 100m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

2952-Iwamura Dam

The best rural scenery in Japan, a female lord of a castle...such an image is attached to Iwamura-cho. But I think "Japan's best farming village scenery" is an accurate description. The atmosphere is very tranquil, as an old man strolling near the dam casually greeted me. / Gravity Concrete / 35.8m

Dam in Gifu Prefecture

3013-Ogadoho Dam

The park is very beautifully maintained, but even though it is close to the national highway, the access road is not very good, so there will probably be few tourists. Also, the access road is too narrow, and I felt that the dam site is not a place where one can enjoy nature to the fullest because it is too well maintained. / Gravity Concrete / 42.5m

Dam in Gifu Prefecture

1116-Iwaya Dam / Gifu Prefecture

It was just the time of year for autumn foliage, and the fiery red colored leaves were impressive. Living in the Chubu area, "Asuke" comes to mind when I think of autumn foliage, but I also recommend the traffic jam-free Iwaya Dam. / Rockfill / 127.5m

Dam in Gifu Prefecture

1130-Tokuyama Dam

Along with the Kawabegawa Dam in Kyushu, it is one of the dams whose construction is being questioned. When we visited the site, we found that the construction work was progressing surprisingly well, and we could even imagine what the embankment would look like after completion. When completed, it will have the highest total storage capacity in Japan, the third highest embankment height, the second largest embankment volume, and the third largest water area. / Rockfill / 161m

Dam in Gifu 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

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

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

1219-Uren Dam/Uredam

Drive National Route 151 and turn onto Prefectural Route 424. There is a signboard on the way, so you should be fine. The dam itself is a popular tourist attraction because of the nearby "Nyuiwa Gorge," which is famous for its strange rocks and megaliths. / Gravity Concrete / 65m

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

3042-Ameyamatamu

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

Dam in Aichi Prefecture

1024-Matsugawa Dam

The composting problem unique to the Tenryu River system is also present in this Matsukawa Dam. Currently, the Matsukawa Dam redevelopment project is underway. There were signs about it here and there along the road leading to the Matsukawa Dam. / Gravity Concrete / 84.3m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1017-Susohana Dam

The season is February. It was the middle of winter. Although this is my favorite winter dam, there were avalanches here and there on the road, and the dam site and top edge were completely frozen, creating a dangerous atmosphere. Three radial gates can be seen in the crest section. / Arch / 83m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1035-Miso River Dam

Since it is upstream of the Kiso River, it was named "Miso River" because it "has not yet become the Soso River," or "has not yet become the Kiso River. / Rockfill / 140m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

1034-Minowa Dam

The first dam of the "Sudden New Year's Day Dam Tour". Originally, I was just heading north to enjoy the snow drive! So we just kept going north, but when we saw the word "dam," we headed there on our own. / Gravity Concrete / 72m

Nagano Prefecture Dam

3321-Makio Dam

My home slope is nearby, and the dam is located at the foot of Mt. It is the source of the Aichi Waterworks and the water reservoir of Aichi. / Rockfill / 104.5m
