This Hamagochokarahi is important historical ruins to prove about the land reclamation in Suonada in the Edo period. The detailed work of stone cut gutters tells the sophisticated technique of civil engineering in those days.

Takadomarikaisaku was completed in 1668 by reclaiming Takadomari bay.

The gutter gate is 10.81m in width, 6.18m in height.

This was a functional gate for over 300 years until the gate now was built.
