One of the largest burial mounds (kofun) in Japan, thought to date from the 6th century and possibly the burial place of Emperor Keitai. Unlike most kofun, which are strictly off limits to the public, this one has been turned into a park and there are active archaeological excavations in progress. The neighboring museum showcases finds so far, including haniwa clay statues, replicas of which are dotted around the park as well.

The elaborate Gothic-Tudor villa of wealthy businessman Shotaro Kaga, now turned into an elegant art museum showcasing mostly Taisho-era art from the 1920s. Has a rather jarring modern annex by Tadao Ando bolted on, with three works by Monet. The coffee shop serves Taisho era delicacies like hot Calpis and azuki bean chiffon cake.
