I wrote an article in the following structure. # Harmony of Kii's Tradition and Nature 〜Iwahashi Senzuka Kofungun〜## Invitation to the Ancient Iwahashi Senzuka Kofungun standing in Wakayama's rural area promises an experience of astonishment transcending time. This place is densely packed with 900 ancient burial mounds, embodying the traditional landscape passed down from ancient times.## Bluish Stone Art The stones comprising the ancient burial mounds are distinctively bluish crystalline schists. These stones, stacked to form the mounds, resemble art pieces welling up from the earth. The reconstructed haniwa also bear witness to the robustness of these stones.## Glimpse of Nature's Backstage Walking through the burial mounds, you will be awe-struck by the beauty of the landscape spread out before you. Meanwhile, aside from dangerous areas, there are opportunities to explore the interiors of the mounds, which is also a charm. You will experience the beauty of ancient craftsmanship while feeling the connection between nature and humanity.## Temptation of Hiking If you visit the burial mounds, I recommend strolling around the surrounding area. Walking along the mountain paths, you will encounter various mounds and enjoy a precious time ensconced in lush greenery. There are also rest spots scattered around, so it is safe even for families with children.## Playing with Clay The regularly held 'Haniwa Making Experience' is a popular event for both adults and children. You will surely become engrossed in the process of creating your own unique piece from the lumpy clay. # Return to the Past, Embrace New Encounters While tapping into the breath of history and the grace of nature, Iwahashi Senzuka Kofungun offers us a new perspective. By visiting here, you may liberate yourself from the everyday and engage with a deeper part of yourself.
