    Quiet かに む Front and rear cemetery

    Original Text

    It is not far from Amagatsuji Station. However, there is no such thing as a guide, so a map is a must. It's amazing that there are usually such a magnificent front and rear burial mounds. According to the identification of Kunaicho, it is the tomb of Emperor Suinin, but it seems that archaeologically it is not certain. I think it is efficient to go around Toshodaiji Temple and Yakushiji Temple and take the train from Nishinokyo.

Jurisdiction of the Imperial Household Agency. There is a double fence between the worship hall and the torii gate, and the gravel laid is linear with sand crests. There is nothing in particular, but a place where you can pray quietly.

    The sky is wide.

    Original Text

    From the area around Toshodaiji Temple in Nishinokyo, through the residential area on the west side of the Kintetsu Line, the sky suddenly spreads out at a small height. There is a beautiful front and rear burial mound surrounded by a moat that praises the water. A tumulus fan who came from Kyoto explained.
