Natsoo Wanka Hapaki Medical Garden

@bloc

About:

The Natsoo Wanka Hapaki Medical Garden spans a series of rolling hills, each hosting diverse biomes from across Makasing and beyond, supported by advanced technology to sustain the variety of ecosystems. Ceramic paths wind through the landscape, connecting alcoves, seating areas, and outdoor meeting spaces where visitors can rest or gather in nature.

This serene garden also bears a somber history: it was the site of the first attack during The Rock Breaker Plot, where several people lost their lives or were injured, making it both a place of healing and remembrance.
