Fukaya Dam is a concrete dam spanning the Hida River, surrounded by a well-maintained park that becomes a popular cherry blossom spot in spring. The dam itself is an impressive feat of engineering, with water cascading over its spillway during high flow. Visitors can stroll along riverside walking trails, cross the dam crest for river views, and enjoy picnics on the grassy banks. The park features playgrounds and benches, making it a family-friendly destination. During late March to early April, rows of cherry trees burst into bloom, creating a picturesque scene reflected in the calm reservoir.
