金海ガラク国の王と妃が眠る場所を訪ねて | 旅行コース | K-Travel Mate

A small mountain peak located in Gusan-dong, Gimhae-si, designated as a Gyeongsangnam-do monument on August 6, 1983, and changed to a historic site on March 7, 2001. It is said to be the birthplace of Suro Wang, the founder of Gaya. Originally called Gusubong because it resembled a turtle's head, the flat area where the tomb of Queen Suro now lies represents the turtle's body, and the peak extending westward is thought to look like the turtle's head, hence the name. At the summit, there is a southern-style dolmen believed to date back to the 4th century BC. The dolmen has a cover stone resting on short support stones, and on it is inscribed the Gujibongseok epitaph believed to be written by the scholar Han Ho. Though Gujibong is just a low hill, it remains a sacred mountain for local people as the main stage of the birth legend of Gaya’s founder. During the Japanese colonial period, a road cut through Gujibong, severing the turtle's neck, but because of geomantic concerns, a pedestrian path was built over the road to reconnect the broken neck area.

The tomb of King Suro, the founder of Geumgwan Gaya, located in Seosang-dong, Gimhae-si, is designated as a historic site. It is a round-shaped mound approximately 5 meters high, with buildings such as Sungsunjeon (where the spirit tablet is enshrined), Anhwangak (for storing incense and sacrificial tools used in spring and autumn rites), Jeonsacheong, and Jegigo. There are also stone structures like the spirit monument and the merit monument. Major historic sites of Suro Royal Tomb include Sungsunjeon, Anhwangak, Nambyeong main gate (the main gate of the royal tomb), and Gujibong, which is a formation of ten turtles grouped together. King Suro ascended the throne as the founder of Garakguk in 42 AD, married Princess Heo Hwang-ok from the Indian Yautya Kingdom in 48 AD, and is the progenitor of the Gimhae Kim clan. In the 13th year of Seonjo's reign (1580), Yeongnam Governor Heo Yeop reportedly renovated the tomb into its current form. Inside the tomb are spirit tablets of King Suro and Queen Suro; spirit tablets are places where the soul of the deceased rests, referring to a portrait or document of the deceased. The tombstone in front of the tomb was erected in the 25th year of King Injo's reign (1647), and the name Sungsunjeon was bestowed by the king in the 21st year of King Gojong's reign (1884).
