  • - [Narrator] Nestled in the side of the Yoro Mountains,

  • the Site of Reversible Destiny in Japan

  • is an experience park

  • where guests encounter the unexpected.

  • The park was designed by artists Shusaku Arakawa

  • pavilions and constantly changing terrains.

  • There is an intricate network of 148 paths

  • and 24 types of plants that emphasize

  • the changing of the season, such as cherry blossoms

  • in the springtime and vibrant autumn leaves in the fall.

  • Some of the attractions include

  • The Critical Resemblance House,

  • which has a map of Gifu Prefecture,

  • a region of central Japan, as a rooftop,

  • and the Reversible Destiny office

  • that contains an uneven pastel-colored maze

  • and a ceiling that mirrors the design of the floor.

  • Visitors are encouraged to explore the site

  • with the mindset of a child, to climb, be curious,

  • and discover different visual perceptions.

  • But because of slanting angles, steep hills,

  • and narrow pathways, the Site of Reversible Destiny

  • offers optional helmets to ensure a safe excursion.
