ABOUT
About this spot
The Site of Reversible Destiny in Yoro Town, Gifu Prefecture, is a vast interactive art facility that realizes the vision of world-renowned artist Shusaku Arakawa and his partner Madeline Gins. The park is full of devices that fundamentally shake your everyday senses, such as slopes that throw off your sense of balance, inverted maps, and furniture placed in unexpected places. In particular, the main pavilion "Critical Resemblance House" and the "Elliptical Field" scattered within the huge basin let you experience the gap between vision and bodily sensation just by walking, a strange space that truly "reverses destiny." Its unique colors and forms are overwhelmingly popular as photo spots for social media, and taking unusual photos of each other with friends is part of the fun. Within the nearby Yoro Park are scenic spots rich in nature such as Yoro Falls, making this an ideal destination for weekend drives, family trips, or solo trips of self-reflection. Because the slopes are very steep, wear comfortable clothes and well-worn sneakers, and set off on an extraordinary adventure that uses all your senses.
