Ancient burial mounds have
been moved from their original locations and reconstructed on this site,
allowing visitors to experience a taste of ancient times. Of particular
interest is the Kososhi-Otani No. 1 Tomb, a key-shaped burial mound measuring
45.5 m in length. The tomb has been reconstructed precisely as it was built
originally, with the outer slopes tomb covered in pebbles and cylindrical
haniwa clay figures standing in rows around the tomb perimeter. As they
cross over the bridge to the tomb, visitors pass through 4.6 billion years
of global history, from the earth's creation until the emergence of humankind.
On the other side of the bridge are a children's playground and a recreation
trail. |
