Ayamezuka Kofun is a keyhole-shaped burial mound (kofun) located in the Takenomachi neighborhood of Nishikan-ku, Niigata, in Japan's Hokuriku region. Belonging to the zenpō-kōen-fun architectural type—characterized by its distinctive front and rear sections—the mound was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1938, reflecting its significance as an archaeological monument.
