Where to Find the Naoshi Mural

The Naoshi mural is tucked away in the Ohtani region, near the northern high-altitude section. To spot it, you’ll want to keep an eye out for a cluster of red radio towers and electricity pylons dominating the skyline. These structures act as your landmark.

Once you’ve identified the towers, head straight underneath them. There, attached to the eastern side of the main utility building, is the bright, colorful Naoshi mural. The artwork practically jumps off the wall, making it easy to frame in Photo Mode. Simply park in front, adjust your angle, and snap a shot to log your reward and progress in the photography collection.

For visual guidance, several players have posted short walkthroughs on YouTube, demonstrating the exact driving path and the ideal angle to capture the mural perfectly.

Tips for Capturing the Mural

High-altitude approach: Fast-traveling or driving to the northern section of Ohtani saves time and provides the best vantage point.

Spot the pylons: The red electricity towers are impossible to miss; they point directly to the mural’s location.

Photo Mode setup: Make sure the mural fills the frame without cutting off any edges—this ensures the game registers your shot for the journal.
