#Spring0yenTrip The first thing I felt when I visited Daisen Kofun was its overwhelming "silence". While I was surprised by the scale of the world's largest keyhole-shaped tumulus, its presence was so quiet that I got the impression that "time" itself was asleep. You can't go inside directly, but that only deepens the mysticism. By thinking about things that cannot be seen, I felt like I was getting closer to history. While living in the present, I was able to think about the activities of people more than a thousand years ago - such time leaves a deep impression on my heart. Daisen Kofun is not just a ruin, but a place where people's thoughts and culture continue to live beyond time. It may be a place to go for "conversation" rather than sightseeing. #DaisenKofun #AncientRomance #QuietTime #WorldHeritage #HistoryAndDialogue

Have you ever heard of Sakai City in Osaka? 1. I discovered this hidden gem in Osaka. Its name is just one character: Sakai City. It's only a 10-minute train ride from Osaka. However, there's little information about it online. Compared to the crowded streets of Osaka, Sakai's streets are spacious. Strolling around, I discovered some unexpected surprises! 2. Daisen Park: This central park in Sakai City is located next to the Emperor's Mausoleum. It has beautiful Japanese gardens, perfect for taking photos. It's also a great spot for cherry blossom viewing in spring. It's a less-crowded, scenic spot. Daisen Park was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Sakai City. Similar to Kyoto's Heian Shrine, which was built to commemorate the 1100th anniversary of the capital's move from Nara to Kyoto. Across from the park is the Emperor Nintoku's Mausoleum, one of the three largest tombs in the world. This mausoleum is as famous as the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor and the Great Pyramid of Giza. You can't enter the mausoleum, only view it from the outside. The mausoleum is surrounded by trees, so you can't see much. Plus, it has a perimeter of over 3 km, so walking around it can be tiring. Emperor Nintoku's Mausoleum is one of the largest ancient tombs in Japan and the world, and its grandeur is breathtaking. Daisen Park was selected as one of the "100 Best Historical Parks in Japan," and its characteristic is the beautiful natural landscape within the park. 3. While one trip is not enough to fully reveal the essence of a city, through these personal experiences, we can glimpse its essence from many aspects. 4.
