History

Emperor Itoku, resting in the Southern Mausoleum of Unebi Mountain, was a sovereign demonstrating virtuous rule in ancient Japan. The Kashihara plateau I have watched continues to shine with his high moral character and wisdom of governance across the ages. Pilgrims visiting this mausoleum offer prayers for the continuation of the imperial line and national peace.
