We do not know if Emperor Jimmu is a myth or not. But this place exist as a memory of the first Emperor in Japan. It is a place ful of emotions and make oneself start thinking about what happened 2600 years ago. Is it really Emperor Jinmu? Who built it? And how could it survive?

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The tomb of the legendary figure, the first emperor

Jan 2023 • Solo

This is the tomb of the first emperor in the world of mythology. It was relocated from Tsukayama to a new site during the Meiji period, and is particularly vast and tranquil among the surrounding tombs. It has a similar atmosphere to Kashihara Shrine, both in terms of its symbolic and political significance during the Meiji period.
