Kuji Ento-bunsui, Water diversion structure in Kawasaki, Japan
The Kuji Ento-bunsui features a cylindrical tank that distributes water into multiple channels through precise mathematical calculations and engineering principles.
Engineers developed this water management system during the late Meiji period to address irrigation needs and prevent conflicts over water distribution among farmers.
The design of Kuji Ento-bunsui represents Japanese engineering methods that balance technological efficiency with respect for natural water flow patterns.
Visitors can reach the site via the Tokyu Den-en-toshi Line to Mizonokuchi Station, followed by a 15-minute walk through residential streets.
The circular tank creates an equal distribution of water pressure, enabling the system to divide water flow without mechanical or electrical components.
