40 minutes from the hotel
Arrive at Ogizawa Station,

Take the "electric bus" that runs on electricity to the 5.4km long
Tunnel that was overcome after 7 months of struggle

Upon arrival, there are two routes to see Kurobe Dam
One is to climb 220 steps to the observation deck
The other is to descend 60 steps to the dam

More than 101 water spouts per second from the highest point in Japan

At the Rainbow Terrace, you can see the water spray up close, and depending on the wind direction, fine mist flies in to cool you down
On sunny days, a beautiful rainbow appears over the water spray

Exhibits related to the movie "Kurobe no Taiyo" were moved to the Kurobe Dam New Observation Plaza Special Exhibition Hall and exhibited.

The construction of digging the tunnel was extremely difficult.

The most difficult part was the breakthrough of the "fracture zone" where the water pressure was extremely high.

There was also a memorial monument.

You don't need air conditioning inside the tunnel...it's so cold without a jacket.
