Enter and View the Large Horizontal-Chamber Stone Room
About this spot
A circular burial mound of impressive scale among the ancient mounds scattered throughout Miyako Town, and a precious spot where you can actually enter and view the horizontal-chamber stone room inside. The stone room, constructed from massive stones stacked together, is an awe-inspiring space that speaks to the engineering prowess of ancient people. The cool interior of the stone room offers a refreshing escape from summer's heat. Combined with a visit to Buzen Kokubunji Temple, it makes for a perfect walk tracing Miyako Town's ancient history.
