Urasoe Yodore is known as the oldest imperial mausoleum of the Ryukyu Dynasty. The mausoleum has two tombs, "King Shonei's tomb" and "King Eiso's tomb". There are stone coffins, sculptured in the form of buildings. From analysis of the architectural sculpture on the stone coffins, they can be dated to around the Kamakura period. The coffins are sculptured in the form of the interior of a hall of Buddhist stupa or temple. The construction of Urasoe Yodore is divided into 3 periods. Architectural characteristics appeared on the coffins show influences from China, Korea and Japan.
