Oymapinar Dam

It is an arch dam in design, 185 m in height, built to generate hydroelectric power.

[1] Oymapınar Dam is located 12 km north of Manavgat Waterfall.

It is an artificial, freshwater dam with a capacity of 300 million cubic meters.

The weight of the dam structure pushes it down firmly into the underlying rock.

This design is ideal for dams built in rocky narrow gorges.
