This theme park exhibits miniatures of famous buildings and archaeological sites from around the world, reproduced at a 1/25 scale, under the theme of "Protecting the World's Archaeological and Architectural Cultures."
It hosts replicas of 48 World Heritage sites such as the "Statue of Liberty," the "Parthenon Temple," and the "Eiffel Tower," as well as well-known buildings like the "Skytree" and the "White House" from 22 countries and regions. With over 100 exhibits, each creation has been made with permission from the designers and rights holders, reflecting meticulous attention to detail. Around the buildings, there are dolls about 7cm tall, creating an atmosphere where you can enjoy the stories played out by the unique inhabitants of each world. You can also enjoy the real-life feel of the buildings by looking up at them from the same perspective as the dolls, and by taking pictures.
Furthermore, about 99% of the trees planted around the exhibits are real, and they show various expressions as they change with the seasons, adding another layer of charm. A free guide tour introducing the production stories and hidden characters is also recommended.
With restaurants, souvenir shops, baby beds, and nursing rooms, it's a spot that couples and families can enjoy all day.

If you love traveling, this is a must-visit spot where you can go around the world in a day! Over 100 famous buildings from around the world are recreated at 1/25 scale, so it really feels like you're traveling the globe. Even if you walk through quickly, you'll find you've spent over an hour because there's so much to see. There are lots of fun photo spots where you can get creative, and it looks like you can even rent a tripod (for a fee). Since it's outdoors, there isn't much shade, so if you go in the summer, make sure to take precautions against heatstroke. (I was having so much fun I lost track of time, and my friend almost got heatstroke!) The park closes early—5:00 p.m. in summer and 4:00 p.m. in winter (last entry is one hour before closing), so keep that in mind.
