Created by Izu Whitefalcon

Alphonse Mucha is popular in Japan and there is a rich collection in Sakai City in Japan. His lithograph works (stone prints) are similar to the outline method of Ukiyo-e (woodcut prints), and the ”beauties of nature” drawn in folding screens in the era when Japan was isolated. 

And his ”Slavic Epics” has strong messages and were first exhibited in Japan in 2017 outside the Czech Republic.

The Swan Hill Museum is built by Japanese creator, Izu Falcon, and is a comprehensive source of information on the variation of his works and related information about Mucha. 

Its features are that it is a full-scale display of the work (unified to 130%), and it does not use floating texts, notecards givers, etc. that are often used in SL, but uses textures for all titles and explanations as in the real world.

Created by Wanders Nowhere


Wanders Nowhere provides wonderful Dinosaur World, Prehistorica. He also provides the world of  “Dracula” (Bram Stoker, 1897).

In 1897, Jonathan Harker, a solicitor from London, was invited by Count Dracula and visited at Castle Dracula in the Carpathian Mountains in Transylvania, and disappeared.

His fiance, Mina Murray asked us to investigate his disappearance and to return him safely.

Your mission is to visit Castle Dracula and collect 16 pages of Jonathan’s diary. When you complete all of them, you will find your own destiny.

In a field survey, you need to quest, draw a map, find important things and collect detailed information. In a metaverse, you will do the same things.
