About this spot

On the north side of Neyagawa Park stands Neya Kofun (寝屋古墳), a burial mound with a horizontal stone chamber built in the late Kofun period. It is a historic site quietly nestled in the park's leafy setting, and even children who know little about history can feel the romance of antiquity here. Use the time before the fountain starts at 11:00 to enjoy a quiet history walk. The surroundings are enclosed by trees, so it suits a walk during the cool morning hours.

Tips

Some stretches are dirt paths, so visit in comfortable walking shoes. There is an information board, so reading the explanation about the burial mound as you look around deepens your understanding.
