Japan HeritageUeyama Kofun Tumulus
The Ueyama tumulus contains two horizontal stone chambers lying side by side. This is believed to be where Empress Suiko was first buried, alongside her beloved son, Prince Takeda, who passed away at a young age. Their remains were later relocated to the Shinagano Yamadano-misazaki tumulus in Taishi Town, Minami-kawachi in Osaka Prefecture.
