[Reference] About the 'Kimiyo Plants Exhibition'
The 'Kimiyo Plants Exhibition' is an experiential exhibition event held at 'Nature Experience Observatory Rokko Mesaki' on Mount Rokko, a location known for urban legends and UFO sightings. The exhibition is set in a fictional world where 'alien plants created by extraterrestrials for Earth observation are living on the mountain'.
Visitors can observe and interact with bizarre, almost unbelievable plants—such as sunflowers with eyes that follow human movement or mushrooms that appear to laugh—creating a uniquely whimsical experience. Its imaginative world and interactive nature have received high praise, making it especially popular among children.
