Kawanabe Dam, Gravity dam in Minamikyūshū, Japan.

The Kawanabe Dam rises 53.5 meters high and manages water resources through its concrete structure, operating as a multi-purpose water management facility in southern Japan.

The construction and inauguration of Kawanabe Dam in January 2002 marked a significant advancement in water infrastructure development for the Minamikyūshū region.

The dam forms part of Japan's comprehensive water management system, which supports traditional rice cultivation and maintains agricultural practices throughout the region.

Visitors can reach observation points near the dam structure to examine its operations, while the facility continues to supply water for domestic and industrial needs.

The structure helps prevent flooding during heavy rain seasons and maintains consistent water levels through its integrated control systems and advanced monitoring equipment.
