Jewel-Encrusted Animals in Motion: “ANIMAL”
The first area you’ll encounter is ANIMAL, where jewel-adorned creatures greet you.
Leopards with piercing eyes and animals with dynamic, muscular forms. The creatures displayed on the LED walls are decorated with jewel-like ornaments, glowing ethereally in purple light. Each moment is illuminated, creating an immersive realism as if real animals have appeared before you.
The mirrored floors and walls create an endless reflection of imagery—a spectacular sight. As an introduction to MIRACLE WORLD’s universe, this area builds anticipation for what’s to come.
Surrounded by Countless Diamonds: “DIAMOND”
The DIAMOND area features mirrored floors with LED displays covering the walls and ceiling. The jewels filling your entire field of vision are breathtaking.
Countless sparkling diamonds transform continuously through light and reflection, enveloping you in brilliance from every angle. The dazzling atmosphere is beautiful, making you feel as if you’ve stepped into another world.
Beyond diamonds, pink and mint-green butterflies flutter through the space. This fantastical realm of shimmering jewels is one of MIRACLE WORLD’s signature highlights.
Ripples and Japanese Scenery: “NATURE”
The NATURE area is themed around water and nature. Waterside imagery spreads across the entire floor, beautifully depicting Japanese scenery.
With each step, ripples spread from beneath your feet as koi and stingrays swim around—endlessly captivating to watch. During autumn scenes, falling leaves scatter with the ripples. In this refreshing space of shimmering water and light, you can experience the four seasons of Japan.
Interactive elements that respond to your movements appeal to visitors of all ages. The scenes evocative of traditional Japanese landscapes and autumn in Kyoto are particularly noteworthy.
Cherry Blossoms in Bloom with Scent and Music: “SAKURA”
The SAKURA area symbolizes Japanese spring. The moment you step inside, you’re enveloped by a floral fragrance.
Cherry blossoms in full bloom are projected across the walls while petals drift down to the floor. The display unfolds to a ballad, creating an emotional experience. The space bathed entirely in pink is beautiful, charming, and filled with a gorgeous atmosphere.
Touch points on the walls let you trigger cherry blossoms to bloom and spread. This area lets you experience cherry blossom season through not just visuals but also fragrance, music, and touch.
Chat with Aliens in Osaka Dialect: “UNIVERSE”
The UNIVERSE area is themed around outer space. Here, you can experience communication with aliens.
Operate the panel and an alien appears on screen. You can choose from multiple characters including child and adult aliens to chat with. What’s surprising is that these aliens speak in thick Osaka dialect. The unexpected combination of outer space and Osaka dialect creates a gap that’s bound to make you laugh.
Multiple languages are supported, so anyone can enjoy conversing with the aliens. It’s a playful area where space meets Osaka.
From Space to City: The Grand Visual Finale “SKY”
The SKY area is MIRACLE WORLD’s grand finale—a 360-degree immersive visual experience.
Starting from Earth floating in space, the journey continues through the deep sea, sky, and city. The story unfolds with magnificent visuals. Airplanes flying through sunset skies, cityscapes with Tokyo Tower standing tall—each scene transition brings new wonder.
With floors, walls, and ceiling all wrapped in imagery, the immersion is overwhelming. This area offers the most narrative-driven experience, a fitting conclusion to MIRACLE WORLD.
Photos Welcome Everywhere! Capture Your Memories
Photography is allowed throughout all areas of MIRACLE WORLD. From entrance to exit, every space is photogenic—take plenty of photos and videos to share on social media.
Staff members are stationed in each room. If you ask for help with photos or videos, they’ll happily act as your photographer. Don’t hesitate to request commemorative shots with friends, partners, or family.
Namba’s New Landmark: A Surreal Art Experience for All Senses
ANIMAL with jeweled animals to greet you, DIAMOND wrapped in brilliance, NATURE with ripples and Japanese scenery, SAKURA with fragrance and cherry blossoms, UNIVERSE with Osaka-dialect-speaking aliens, and SKY with its grand visual journey. MIRACLE WORLD offers a different “surreal” world in each of its six themed areas.
Taking your time to explore, the experience lasts about 40 minutes. Rather than “just watching,” you “become part of the art.” That’s what MIRACLE WORLD is all about.
MIRACLE WORLD is located where Minami Sennichimae Shopping Street meets Namba Sennichimae-dori. The entrance features a large monitor with staff standing by, making it easy to find.
