Tsugaru Fujimi Lake
Reservoir in Honshū, Japan / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tsugaru Fujimi Lake (津軽富士見湖, Tsugaru Fujimi-ko) also known as Mawarizeki Ōtameike (廻堰大溜池) is a reservoir that is located almost entirely within the town of Tsuruta in Aomori Prefecture, Japan, though a portion of its southern shore lies within the city of Hirosaki. It was built in 1660 to collect snowmelt in order to irrigate the fields in the surrounding area.[1]
