Key Message
The landscapes that unfold before our eyes
and the creatures that live within them,
and the cultures and traditions we have spun,
are deeply related
to the long story of the Earth.
We will unravel the Earth-scaled stories
that are hidden in our daily lives,
through rocks and landscapes collected from geoparks across Japan.
See familiar landscapes in a new way!
Let's go on a "Geoparkian Journey!"
