The period and time of sightseeing water-drainage
Actual size

It is said that the periods of sightseeing water-drainage of Kurobe Dam are periods from June 26 to October 15 every year, and water is sprayed on water-drainage time from early morning to the evening every day. although the purpose of this sightseeing water-drainage may delight a tourist's eye visited, of course -- another purpose -- the Kurobe river -- damming up -- since it becomes difficult to flow through water into downstream Kurobe Gorge, It seems that it serves also as the purpose of water-drainage to a downstream dam in order to maintain the scene of Kurobe Gorge.
