The Museum of Rocks That Look Like Faces

November 29, 2016 by Craig DiLouie 1 Comment

In Japan, there is a museum of rocks that look like faces, or jinmenseki. Officially, the Hall of Curious Rocks.

When I first heard about this, I was like, well, that’s Japan for you.

My second response was, wow, these rocks are kind of cool!

The museum is located in Chichibu, Japan and hosts a large collection. The main requirement is the rock must look like a human face and be completely natural with no human artistry.

Here’s a photo for you below. I think my favorite is the happy little chunkster on the bottom right.
