Ekanshu
Japan is home to a variety of amusement parks, from giant theme parks to quirky local attractions, offering fun for visitors of all ages. The most famous include Tokyo Disneyland & DisneySea, known for their immersive Disney experiences, and Universal Studios Japan in Osaka, which features popular movie-themed rides and shows. Smaller parks, like Fuji-Q Highland near Mount Fuji, are famous for thrilling roller coasters with amazing views. Tickets can be purchased online in advance to avoid long lines, and many parks offer express passes to skip busy rides. Most parks have food courts, souvenir shops, and lockers to store your belongings. For beginners, it’s a good idea to arrive early, plan the rides you want to try, and check the park map. Visiting Japan’s amusement parks is not just about the rides — it’s a full experience of Japanese attention to detail, themed entertainment, and seasonal events, making it a must-do for tourists and locals alike.
