■Relationship between Hinatazaka46 and Miyazaki Prefecture
Since renaming it to "Hinatazaka46" in 2019, due to the commonality of the phrase "Hinata," the TV program "Let's Meet Hinatazaka" was filmed in Miyazaki, and Governor Kono, Miyazaki Prefecture, has also appeared. This broadcast was called a "good episode" among fans and became the "legendary Miyazaki location shoot." After that, his relationship with Miyazaki Prefecture deepened on various occasions, and in August 2024 he became the "Miyazaki Ambassador" and in September of the same year he held the "Hinata Festival 2024" which uses the entire Hinata Miyazaki Prefectural General Athletic Park, including the "Hinata" Sunmarine Stadium Miyazaki.
What is "Virtual Miyazaki"
"Virtual Miyazaki" is a metaverse space aimed at promoting tourism in Miyazaki Prefecture, which opened on Friday, January 31, 2025. A new initiative to spread the appeal of Miyazaki Prefecture to the younger generations.
Its distinctive feature is the fusion of high-definition reproduction and gameplay of tourist destinations (Miyazaki Prefectural Office, Udo Shrine, Takachiho Gorge). It's not just a recreation of tourist destinations, but by implementing the distinctive experiences of each spot as a game, we have created a system that allows you to experience the charm of Miyazaki while having fun.
1. Miyazaki Prefectural Government World
The main world, which functions as an entrance, provides tourist information and links to accommodation reservations, as well as e-commerce sites for prefectural products and prefectural hometown tax donations. Various events are also planned to be held in the future.
