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.

I cycled from Daisen Park to Higashi and Nishi Sakenomi-zuka Burial Mounds, which lay symmetrically across Daisen Green Path.
No ancient Tomb has been clearly identified whose burial mound it was. 896 of them, however, were presumed to be those of Imperial Family members in the Meiji Era, based on the study of Japanese classical literature conducted by the students in Edo Period.
Each tomb has had a kind of a nickname, according to where it was, what it looked like, and as such, but we have almost no idea why and when they were named so. The names, Nishi-Sakenomi-zuka and Higashi-Sakenomi-zuka, are rare cases to have such humorous names, literally West Drunkard and East Drunkard Burial Mounds. I don’t think any drunkard had been buried under them.
