Jukai Forest is a major green-aligned location on Kamigawa, an ancient forest composed mainly of huge cedar trees.[1] In Japanese, Jukai (樹海) means "sea of trees".

The forest is inhabited by the orochi (snakefolk), and humans: budoka and kannushi monks, and the border regions are a home of kitsune (fox-folk), with many villages built there. Part of Jukai was destroyed during the soratami invasion during the events of Guardian: Saviors of Kamigawa.

The guardian dragon spirit of Jukai is Jugan, the Rising Star.
