Chambered Cairn in Honshū

In an agricultural field behind a shinto shrine in a staging post town of an ancient highway, Tsurugawa (鶴川), a cairn lies which is covered with the pebbles dug out from the field and a tiny white stone shrine is placed on whose top. This white shrine can be observed from the opposite side, on the highway from Uenohara (上野原) the previous stage town to next Tsurugawa, across a river.
