Fukuji Dam

The Fukuji Dam stretches across the landscape with its 91.7-meter-high structure, constructed from layers of carefully positioned rock materials to maintain water pressure.

Engineers completed the construction of Fukuji Dam in 1969, marking a significant advancement in water management infrastructure for the Higashi region of Japan.

Local communities gather annually at the dam site to participate in traditional water blessing ceremonies, highlighting the connection between infrastructure and Japanese customs.

Visitors can access designated viewing platforms around the dam complex from sunrise to sunset, with parking facilities available near the main entrance.

The dam's engineering design incorporates specific rock-fill patterns that allow it to distribute pressure effectively while supporting the substantial water reservoir behind it.
