Ōnezaka submitted by Aska : Site in Kyushu Japan Ōnezaka dolmen (Vote or comment on this photo)
Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Kyūshū

In a rice field on Azuchi-Ōshima island, a tilted dolmen lies. The islanders cultivated the steep island into paddy field terraces, a splendid view.
Watch out for the wires around the rice field on which 800V electricity runs to prevent the wild animals from harming the crops.
