Include notes, photos, and memories to make it even more special. This gift not only showcases her passion but also allows her to plan future adventures and document her experiences.

2. Photography Tour: Consider booking a guided photography tour in a city known for its urban exploration opportunities.

Many cities offer photography tours specifically tailored to capturing hidden gems and architectural wonders, providing her with a unique and educational experience.

3. Explore Abandoned Places Coffee Table Book: Look for a beautifully illustrated coffee table book that highlights captivating abandoned places from around the world. This will allow your mom to enjoy her love for urban exploration from the comfort of her own home. She can immerse herself in stunning photography and compelling stories about forgotten buildings, ghost towns, and deserted landmarks.

4. Urban Exploration Equipment: If your mom enjoys actively participating in urban exploration, consider enhancing her experience with some equipment she might find useful. This could include a high-quality camera or lenses, a lightweight and durable backpack to carry essentials, comfortable walking shoes, or even a headlamp for exploring underground spaces. These practical gifts will not only enhance her adventures but also show that you support her passion.

5. DIY Urban Exploration Scrapbook: Encourage your mom to document her urban exploration journeys by creating a DIY scrapbook kit. Include a blank scrapbook, colorful pens, stickers, and prints of her favorite photos. This gift encourages her to be creative while preserving and sharing her urban exploration memories in a unique and personal way.

Remember, the most important aspect of any gift is the thoughtfulness behind it. Be sure to add a heartfelt note expressing your appreciation for her interests and the joy she finds in urban exploration. By combining her love for this hobby with a personalized touch, you'll create a memorable gift that truly celebrates her and her passion.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.
