Fūdoki no Oka Park

Fudoki no Oka Park in southern Osaka Prefecture preserves over 100 burial mounds within 29 hectares, more kofun per area than anywhere else in the prefecture. About 40 mounds are accessible, and some have their internal chambers open to explore on foot. The Chikatsu-Asuka Museum, built here in 1994, explains how the mounds were constructed and displays recovered artifacts including bronze mirrors, terracotta haniwa figures, and gilt bronze horse fittings. The park also draws birdwatchers year-round and crowds during spring plum and cherry blossom season and autumn foliage.
