Seismic Faults Observation and Experience House, Geological museum in Motosu, Japan.

The museum exhibits detailed displays of the Neodani Fault system through interactive seismic demonstrations and geological cross-sections of the earth's structure.

Established in March 1992, this geological institution emerged as a response to scientific interest in studying the regional fault lines of Gifu Prefecture.

The museum functions as an educational center where Japanese students learn about tectonic movements and earthquake preparedness through hands-on activities.

Visitors can access detailed geological information through multimedia presentations, scale models, and direct observation points of natural fault formations.

The facility contains specialized equipment that reproduces seismic movements, allowing visitors to experience different earthquake intensities in controlled conditions.
