Gyojazuka Kofun is a zenpō-kōen-fun—a keyhole-shaped burial mound—located in Japan. This architectural form, characteristic of kofun monuments, features the distinctive combined design of a rounded rear section and a rectangular front platform, a style prevalent in Japanese funerary architecture during the kofun period.
