The Kurobe Dam(黒部ダム), located in Toyama Prefecture, Japan, is the country’s tallest dam and a popular tourist destination. Completed in 1963, this impressive structure was built on the Kurobe River and stands at a height of 186 meters (610 feet).
It attracts around 10 million visitors annually, making it one of Japan’s most visited landmarks.
The dam is a highlight of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, a scenic mountain route that offers breathtaking views of the Japanese Alps.
Visitors can walk along the top of the dam and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the turquoise waters of the dam’s reservoir.
One of the dam’s most famous attractions is the seasonal water discharge, which occurs from June to October each year.
During this period, water is released from the dam at a rate of up to 10 cubic meters per second.
The sight of the powerful water release, combined with the mist and rainbows that often form, creates a stunning visual spectacle.
The dam is accessible via the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, which can be traveled by a combination of cable cars, buses, and ropeways.
The route itself is a major attraction, offering views of dramatic landscapes, snow corridors, and high-altitude mountains.
