The Shionjiyama Kofun Site Museum is a fun place to learn about ancient tumuli and life in the past. The nearby Shionjiyama kofun is a large burial mound built approximately 1600 years ago, believed to be the final resting place of a powerful figure from that era.
At the Site Museum, you can easily understand the structure of the kofun and ancient lifestyles by viewing models and exhibits. You can also participate in hands-on events, such as making magatama (curved jade ornaments).
In addition, the area surrounding the kofun has been turned into a park, allowing you to feel the history of ancient times as you walk around. Why not experience the history of Yao with your family and friends? It is a place of learning that everyone from children to adults can enjoy.
