An immersive virtual reality experience utilizing spatial VR technology has been temporarily created within the Important Cultural Property "Sanboin Junjokan," associated with Hideyoshi Toyotomi. This experience envelops visitors in views from unique perspectives, such as the Sanboin Garden, the nature of Kamidaigo, and the cherry blossoms of Daigo, which are not typically seen during regular visits.
The history and beauty of Daigo, and the co-creation with technology. Let's embark on an experience of "prayer," looking at our own hearts amidst the trees and nature that Taiko Hideyoshi would have seen 400 years ago, transcending time and space.
Prayer is a conversation with oneself.
To have a conversation with the trees, forests, nature, and the things around us.
Through dialogue, you can confront your own heart,
and recognize your feelings towards those you love and those you are grateful for.
Transcend time and space, and look into your own heart amidst the trees and nature
that Hideyoshi would have seen 400 years ago.
And, I hope you can feel the importance of cherishing the existence of other lives and caring for people.
