Women giggle and men turn pale at the "Mysteries of the Human Body" exhibition at the Tokyo International Forum in Chiyoda Ward.
But unlike their counterparts in Europe, the people flocking to the exhibit here don't appear to have any ethical worries as they take in the items on display.
The event, supported by such organizations as the Japanese Medical Association, aims to promote understanding about the human body and general health. It takes the rare approach of displaying real bodies and body parts, even allowing visitors to touch some of them.
