A view image rendering module (102) generates an image of a virtual space on the basis of a first viewpoint indicating the viewpoint of a user on the virtual space, and displays the generated image on a view image presentation module (101). A map image rendering module (104) generates a map image indicating a region around the position of the first viewpoint on the virtual space, and displays the generated map image on a map image presentation module (103). The position of the first viewpoint and the visual axis direction are controlled using a viewpoint position.cndot.visual axis direction input module (106) which is provided on the display surface of the map image presentation module (103). Furthermore, a virtual object set on the virtual space undergoes manipulation control using a virtual object manipulation input module (107) which is provided on the display surface of the map image presentation module (103).
