Experience the unparalleled might of Godzilla at "Godzilla Interception Operation", the world's sole entertainment attraction, themed around the monumental life-size Godzilla that descended upon Awaji Island. Immerse yourself as a member of the National Godzilla Awajishima Research Center, receiving insight into the unfolding "Godzilla interception operation" against the colossal creature.

The attraction offers two distinct courses: the "Body Observation Course", where participants enter the life-size Godzilla's mouth for zip-line missions, and the "Beside Godzilla Course", allowing you to glide alongside the awe-inspiring creature. This interactive shooting experience employs a special gun to eliminate Godzilla cells strewn across the landscape, thwarting their growth.

Adjacent to this, the world's pioneering "Godzilla Museum" stands as a permanent fixture. Crafted in collaboration with Toho Visual Art Co., Ltd., renowned for their expertise in the special effects art of Godzilla films, the museum features impactful dioramas that transport you to iconic movie scenes. A rich array of materials chronicles the history of successive "Godzilla" iterations, showcasing exclusive exhibits and official artifacts unique to this locale.

The AR Mystery Solving Pass introduces you to an augmented reality mystery-solving game, "Track the Cells of a Giant Unknown Creature!" Utilizing a special puzzle-solving kit and the official Godzilla Interception Operation smartphone app, you'll uncover concealed clues scattered across the Godzilla Zone, unveiling an enigmatic narrative.

A designated Kids Park takes center stage in the Godzilla interception strategy, offering a zone filled with kaiju soft vinyl toys, enabling youngsters to embody these monstrous beings in playful engagement.

For an added fee, enjoy video and photo opportunities at the Awaji Island Tokusatsu Studio. Relish a selection of themed dishes, including the enticing "Godzilla curry", available for purchase at the Mori no Terrace food truck within the area.

The Godzilla Interception Operation attraction is situated within the outdoor theme park at Hyogo Prefectural Awajishima Park.

Operating hours might change due to seasonal fluctuations or safety considerations. For more information, please refer to the official Nijigen no Mori website.
