About a 3-minute walk from the bustling center of Kabukicho in Shinjuku stands a black four-story building. The moment you reach the fourth floor, you enter another world that makes you forget you are in Shinjuku. This ninja trick house was created by a ninja-loving owner who wanted to share the appeal of ninja with as many people as possible. It offers a variety of activities, including throwing shuriken, practicing swordsmanship, and searching for hidden mechanisms.

You will also learn about ninja techniques, secrets, and history, as well as the differences between samurai and ninja. Packed into about 40 minutes, this immersive ninja experience is sure to delight both adults and children and leave them with lasting memories. It is easy to fit into a day of sightseeing in Shinjuku and offers a memorable experience in a compact space. As this is a guided, hands-on attraction with space for only a small number of visitors, be sure to make a reservation in advance.

    Even before coming to Japan, I was really interested in ninjas and would always imagine them as the heroes from legendary stories. About two years ago, I visited with some friends, and it felt so real—like I was playing a small role in a mysterious martial arts drama! It was a lot of fun. If I get the chance, I'd love to go again.
