Daiman Yokoana
Daiman Yokoana submitted by Aska : Tomb no.4 of group III, and no.1 and 2 far behind on the right. (Vote or comment on this photo)
62 rock cut tombs in 4 groups on the slope of a signposted hill.

Tombs 1 and 2 of group I seem to have carvings of sailing-ships but the pile of leaf mould have made them difficult to find.
