Construction outline |
Effective capacity: 2,000 m3; Inner diameter: 19.0 m; Interior space height: 8.0 m. Zakimi No. 2 Distribution Reservoir is registered as a World Heritage Site. It is adjacent to the Zakimi Castle ruins in the village of Yomitan, Okinawa Prefecture. For that reason, the roof of the tank has been made into a flat observation platform, and care has been taken with the tank’s aesthetic design, such as adding a decorative coating to the outer wall, which is modeled after Zakimi Castle’s outer walls. |
