This manmade lake was finished along with the dam in Sagamiko, the northwestern part of Kanagawa Prefecture.
The lake was completed when Sagami Dam was built in 1947. This lake was the first built by a dam construction after WW2, that was still called a lake while being manmade. Today you’ll find cruise boats, rowboats, paddles boats and more. It’s also a well-known spot among fishing-lovers looking for Black Bass. Closeby you’ll find sports, attractions, hot springs and more.
In addition to serving as a precious water source for the local community, the area also serves as a rich nature escape to enjoy.
