In Forza Horizon 6, the Okuyama Taiki Mural is one of those hidden spots that you can easily miss if you’re just rushing through races and events. It’s part of the Discover Japan-style photo collection objectives, and finding it is worth the effort if you’re trying to complete your journal progress and earn extra credits.
The mural is located in the Hokubu region, painted on the north-facing wall of a building in a small, quiet town. It’s not marked directly on the map in a way that stands out, so most players will need to rely on nearby landmarks to narrow it down.

Where the Okuyama Taiki Mural Is Located
The mural sits in a small village area that blends into the surrounding countryside. It’s not in a major city or festival zone, which is why it’s often overlooked.
To make things easier, use these reference points when you’re searching:
- The town is directly north of the Field Maze
- It is southwest of the Sunflower Charge street race event
- It is south of the Tall Trees Speed Zone
Once you line these three landmarks up on your map, you’ll notice a small settlement in between them. That’s your target area.
How to Find the Exact Building
Once you arrive in the village, the tricky part is narrowing down the exact structure. The mural is not on a landmark monument or large building, but on a normal-looking structure along a side street.
Here’s what helps when you’re on the ground:
- Enter the town from the south side, ideally coming from the direction of the Field Maze
- Drive slowly through the main roads and check side streets carefully
- Look specifically at building walls facing north — the mural is painted on one of these exterior walls
- It blends in fairly well with the environment, so don’t rush past buildings too quickly
The mural itself is colorful and stands out once you’re close, but from a distance it can be easy to miss depending on lighting and weather conditions.
How to Complete the Photo Objective
After you’ve found the mural, completing the objective is straightforward, but positioning matters.
- Pull your car directly in front of the mural
- Make sure the artwork is clearly visible in your frame
- Open Photo Mode and adjust the angle so both your car and the mural are included
- Take the photo to trigger the completion notification
Once done correctly, the game will register it as part of your Discover Japan journal progress, and you’ll receive the associated rewards.
