Visitors to an old village in Nara Prefecture, western Japan, are enjoying views of Japan's ancient capital more than 1,200 years ago, using 3-dimensional virtual-reality devices.
Special goggles display computer graphic images of the Asuka capital. People using the goggles can see temples and a burial mound of the time superimposed on the actual scenery.
The device was developed by a team led by Professor Katsushi Ikeuchi of the Institute of Industrial Science at the University of Tokyo.
CG images include that of a mural and the interior of the Takamatsuzuka Tomb and the image of Kawaradera Temple, which no longer exists.
They also depict Amakashi hill in the village.
The goggles were made available for visitors to use on Saturday.
Tourists were seen enjoying the re-created views of the ancient capital. A woman said she felt as if she were actually in the Asuka Period.
