Dams Spots in Eastern Shinshu Area

  • Amekawa Dam
    Travel / Tourism
    Nagano Pref. Sakushi Taguchi
    This check dam is on the Amekawa River, which has its source in the vicinity of Taguchi Pass. While it was built to stop avalanches, it is also used to supply water for agriculture and household use. As such, it holds a high volume of water, and it is unusual for a check dam. The emerald green water creates some unique scenery. Following the road from the reservoir into the forest far enough will bring you to the point farthest from the coast in Japan.

Nagano Areas

Nagano prefecture is an exciting mix of mountains, hot spring monkeys, and preserved Edo history. At the heart of the Japanese Alps, Nagano is one of the country’s most popular destinations, whether in winter for its snow sports and the much-loved Jigokudani Monkey Park or in the warmer months for discovering the undulating hills on foot. For fantastic Edo architecture, head to the Kiso Valley for a 60-kilometer stretch of quaint wooden buildings that marked the Nakasendo route 200 years ago.
