Songhak-dong Tomb (Historic Site No. 119)

5世紀後半から6世紀前半のものと推定される松鶴洞古墳(史跡119号)は、小さな丘の上に一番大きな1号墳があり、この古墳の周辺には6つの古墳があります。そのうち南北の長さ66メートルの1号墳は、その形が日本の前方後円墳に非常に似ており、伽倻国にも日本式古墳が存在すると話題になったこともありましたが、1999年から2002年にかけて行われた発掘調査で3つの円墳が重なった古墳であることが明らかになったというエピソードがある古墳です。

The area around the tomb has been nicely maintained so that visitors can take a stroll, and from the top of the tomb you can get a panoramic view of Goseong city.
