Udozuka Kofun is a Kofun period burial mound located in Kasugaoka, Heguri, Nara Prefecture, in Japan's Kansai region. Built in the characteristic zenpō-kōen-fun style—a keyhole-shaped form with a rectangular front section and circular rear mound—it exemplifies the monumental funerary architecture of its era. The site was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1971.
