Ishibuchi Dam, Embankment dam in Iwate Prefecture, Japan.
Ishibuchi Dam extends 345 meters in length and rises 53 meters high on the Isawa River, creating a reservoir of 108 hectares.
The construction of Ishibuchi Dam commenced in 1945 during the post-World War II reconstruction period and reached completion in 1953.
The dam represents Japanese engineering capabilities in water management infrastructure, contributing to regional development through multiple water resource functions.
Visitors can access the dam site to observe its operations and learn about water management practices while exploring the surrounding natural environment.
In 2013, the entire Ishibuchi Dam structure became submerged beneath the waters of the larger Isawa Dam constructed downstream.
