Barrow Cemetery in Honshū
The greatest (63m) push-button (hemisphere on a rectangular basement) shaped tumulus in a residential area. A small shinto shine was placed on it, the mound has been preserved as a sacred area and numerous trees have grown there. Now it looks like a isolated wood in a town, the trees hinders from observing the shape of the mound.
