Tsukuriyama Kofun is a cluster of Kofun period burial mounds located in the Shinjōshita neighborhood of Kita-ku, Okayama Prefecture, in Japan's San'yō region. The main mound is the largest in Okayama Prefecture and the fourth largest in Japan. Built in the zenpō-kōen-fun style—characterized by a distinctive keyhole shape combining a rectangular and circular section—the site was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1921.
