Lake Aoba

This is the man-made lake of the Yomasari Dam, constructed in 28 years upstream on the Niida River. One of the settlements flooded by the dam's construction features in legends of the fugitive Taira clan, and the dam is named after Taira no Shigemori's Aoba Flute. The New Yomasari Bridge is suspended at a height of 55 meters, connected to two viewing platforms on either side of the dam, from which you can see the beautiful scenery. It is the ideal place to enjoy the hallmarks of each season; the greenery of summer, autumn leaves or snowy landscapes of winter.
