Tsukabaru Dam (Japanese: 塚原ダム) is a concrete gravity dam built on the Mimi River for hydro electric power generation in the Miyazaki Prefecture in Japan. The dam built by the Kyushu Electric Power Co Ltd. in 1938 was commissioned only in 1993. When built to a height of 87 m (285 ft) it was the highest gravity type dam in Japan only to be surpassed later by the Kamishiba Dam raised in the uppermost reaches of the Mimi River.
