What other travelers are saying about Ishibutai Kofun (Stone Chamber Tomb)
A nice place to showcase the historial Japanese era of "Ancient tombs". There are sheets to explain the history and significance of the site.
There is not much things to see except the Tumulus itself though. There are more stone artifacts with very long history in surrounding locations.

Historical and nice place to visit . It was not so crowded But still there were people . There is only stone to watch but you can enjoy the view and ride rental bicycle 🚴and enjoy the scenic view. Admission fee 🎟 is for ¥300 adults and ¥200 for Childrens but make sure there is nothing but only the giant stones only . Toilets 🚽 are available . Vending machines and food courts are also available. Car 🚗 parking is for ¥500 per day and bus 🚌 parking for ¥3000 per day . Wheelchair ♿️ person may get little trouble to travel this place but they can enjoy it from far but there are stairs so I think it would be tough for them be careful . staff were helpful and nice . Only cash 💰so be careful to carry cash . Worth visiting .
The park around here is so lovely, pictures don't do it justice!
Great to have a little picnic and walk around.
I could see there was bicycle rentals available, and a shop with a restaurant.
We thought parking would cost money, but found a small place for free.
Entrance to see the large rocks costs money, but you can just go up the hill a little to a view point and see it for free a little further away.
It’s interesting, and there is a printed sheet in English explaining the site. As with most sites in Nara, there is a ¥300 charge - but I’m not sure it’s worth it unless you are a student of archeology or burial chambers in particular.
