At "NAKED Hanageshiki", you can enjoy the scenery of each season through projection mapping created by the creative company "NAKED, INC.".

Asakusa Hanayashiki was established as "Kaen (Flower Garden)" in 1853. This projection mapping is a digital fusion manifesting the original Flower Garden (Kaen).

■Find out the yokai lurking in the park! ～Enigma? You can be a scoop cameraman too!

In this attraction, visitors take on the role of a newspaper reporter and use a special camera-type device to search for and photograph yokai lurking in the park.

When you hold your camera over the signboards placed at 12 locations in the park, a yokai will appear in the AR.
There are 22 kinds of darling yokais in total.

The time limit is 15 minutes, so it is not easy to find all the yokais.
When you go to make a report after you have finished snapping them, you will be shown a screen resembling an actual newspaper article!
