Located in Asakusa, Tokyo, an area brimming with tourist attractions, lies 'Asakusa Hanayashiki', the oldest amusement park in Japan. Its history dates back to 1853, during the Edo period, and it has marked a staggering 170 years to the present day.

Within the park, there are 17 diverse attractions ranging from the 'Roller Coaster', touted as the oldest surviving coaster in Japan, and nostalgic, retro rides like the 'Panda Car®' and 'Merry-Go-Round', to the kids' ninja park 'NinNin Park' which opened in 2019.

From the Sky Plaza on the fourth floor, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Asakusa, a popular spot for photo shoots. Since bringing your own picnic lunch is allowed, it's a great place to spend a relaxing day with your family or partner.

In July 2023, a new area opened. With a new haunted house based on Japanese ghost stories, three additional attractions, and food and drink outlets, it is sure to be an even more enjoyable spot!

    This is the oldest amusement park in Japan. It's pretty small and doesn't have many thrilling rides, so it's perfect for families with young kids.

    Even though it's an old amusement park, the rides are still really exciting! The slower attractions, like the Ferris wheel, offer some great views too.
