It is an old burial mound that is said to be the tomb of Emperor Monmu, and it is very close to the Takamatsuzuka tomb, which is famous for its mural paintings, and I just glanced at it, but immediately after my visit, I learned that it is a great burial mound with NHK's special feature. It seems that it is valuable to be an octagonal tomb and a cremation tomb (cremation tomb). At the time of the visit, an octagonal stone set was dug up and exposed during the excavation investigation for the first time in 50 years. I realize once again that it is an area where important historical sites are rugged.

It is near the Takamatsuzuka Kofun Tumulus. It is located on a small hill up a little slope. It's very close to the park and there is a parking lot in the park, so it's a little far away, but you can also accelerate by car.

It was on a hill at the national Asuka Historical Park.

The main national Asuka Historical Park is the Takamatsuzuka Kofun. We arrived at the Takamatsuzuka Kofun in about １０ minutes on foot from the parking lot of the park, and headed to the Emperor Monmu Mausoleum in the back. I stopped by this Nakaoyama Kofun tumulus on my way home. This tumulus was on the mountain around the middle of the park. I thought that this tumulus would not notice it if there was no display.

　A vast national Asuka Historical Park. This park is scattered in ５ places in the Asuka region, but the Nakaoyama Kofun tumulus is located in the area where the Takamatsuzuka Kofun tumulus is located. We parked our car in the parking lot of the park and stopped by this Nakaoyama Kofun on the way back from visiting the Takamatsuzuka Kofun and Emperor Monmu Mausoleum. The park, which is quite large, has a large ups and downs, and this Nakaoyama Kofun tumulus is on a small hill, so you have to climb quite a bit. This tumulus is an octagonal tumulus (octagonal tumulus) ...

　It is an octagonal burial mound. The octagon is considered to be a form permitted only by noble people, and is the style of the late Kofun period of the ７～８ century. It is said to be the tomb of Emperor Monmu, but it is not currently certified as the Emperor's Mausoleum, so it is possible to approach it. It's not that big when you go to the site. The tomb of the great king is associated with a huge front and rear burial mound, but this era was differentiated in a form rather than size. It is located in a national park where the Takamatsuzuka Kofun is located, and is close to the parking lot.
