When I visited Mimine Shrine by car from the direction of Nagato, I passed on the straight road of Nise Dam. The straight road on this dam is about 150 meters long and can only pass by one car. Therefore, I was driving only in one direction. I looked around while driving over the dam. I couldn't see directly below, but I found out that I was driving on a narrow straight road in a high place. I wanted to stop the car and look down if possible.

Visited after visiting Mimine Shrine. There is no parking lot near the dam, so I stopped at the Futase Dam parking lot along National Highway No. 140. I walked by the side of the road to the position where I could see Lake Chichibu, but I couldn't enjoy the scenery of the arched dam from the side, so it was best to see it from the observatory. And since it was mid-April, the cherry blossoms on the surrounding slopes were in full bloom. There was no place to park along Route 140, so it was a harvest to be able to take a closer look.
