TOEI KYOTO studio PARK: best Attractions & how to get There

Bang! I didn’t realize just how much of my early years had been taken over by the Japanese until I was standing in the middle of the film park.

I may be a foreigner here, but everything around me looked and sounded mighty familiar. There’s a ninja statue clinging on to the wall in one corner, an anime robot in another, and two samurai warriors combating in a make-believe Edo town. All that was missing was a hentai screening, and the characters of my puberty would have been complete. Tee hee.

It didn’t start as energetic and lively as this. It was a glum morning. Not only was the sun missing, the rain was shoving its buzzkill self into Kyoto that day. even before I could find the theme park, the clouds were already pissing on me every two minutes. It didn’t help that the destination was a bit challenging to find. There were no signs on the way, and it was in a residential maze.

After thirty minutes and ten run-for-cover stops, I finally found the inconspicuous entrance to the park. There was no queue. I sashayed my way into the park, no problem. inside I found myself awfully alone in an old Japanese town set. Hvor er allesammen? having a place to yourself is good if that place is a beach or a shop, but a theme park? Where the EFF is everyone? There was only this geisha flashing a vestal smile at me. Uhyggelig. Seriously, girl; not now, not when I was starting to think I was in a ghost town.

Seriously, girl. stop smiling at me like that.

That awkward moment when you think you’re alone in a theme park and a samurai passes by…
All of a sudden, a big crowd came flooding out of the theater behind me! There’s everyone! Apparently, they were all inside enjoying a ninja show. now this is the theme park I’m talking about! let the fun begin!

About Toei Kyoto studio Park

The Toei Kyoto studio Park  (東映太秦映画村, Tōei Uzumasa Eigamura, or much more simply film Land) is actually a film set that has been made open to the public. It is the only theme park in Japan where visitors can view and observe actual filming of period dramas (jidaigeki films). much more than 200 films are shot here every year! but it is much more than a film set. It has already been transformed into an amusement park featuring an anime museum, a ninja maze, and a maddeningly effective haunted house, among others. visitors may also choose to rent a full Edo period costume and dress up as a samurai or a geisha so they could explore the park in style!

Edo Town

One of the most fascinating sections of the park is Edo Town, an entire block made up of old, conventional houses and shops built to foster a very convincing Edo period vibe. Make a turn onto this part, and you’ll be lost in ancient Japan! There’s a full replica of the Nihonbashi Bridge, the most recognizable landmark in the busiest mercantile district of old Tokyo, and the Yoshiwara red-light district. “Wanted” posters are everywhere, and samurais appear in the area showcasing their mastery of the katana.

West of the town is the Meiji period police Office, in front of which I viewed two warriors give some Samurai combating lessons and instruct lucky guests some of their killer moves!

Hjemsøgt hus

The Japanese know how to deliver a scare, a fact that I was scared to be proven best as I plodded toward its direction.It didn’t help that we had to sign a waiver or some sort, and was reminded OVER and OVER again that there would be NO turning BACK if we made it past the front door.

Stol på mig. It was the best — no, the worst — haunted house you’ll have the crazy pleasure to experience. Spine-tingling props fill the room and hair-raising sound effects send the creeps. I knew what I was getting into, but each step I took was heavy and reluctant. As hard as I tried to not freak out, I could not help but scream with every bloody body and decapitated head that all of a sudden blocked my way. and the actors inside! THE actors INSIDE!!!!!!

Photography is prohibited inside for apparent reasons. (I could’ve smashed the actors with my video camera had I carried it with me!)  There was an extra charge. It was as if I paid them to scare the living schnitzel out of me. Det var forbløffende. frightening but amazing. Upon emerging from it, I wanted to do it again!

Nakamuraza Theater

At the dead center of the park is the Nakamuraza Theater, where they stage a variety of totally free shows. The one I saw was an action-comedy live ninja show. The problem was that it was in Japanese, but it was so action-packed it didn’t really matter. I just assumed the comedy part because everyoneEllers lo så hårdt på adskillige punkter under programmet.

Ninja Mystery House

Når vi taler om Ninja, er en anden interessant attraktion Ninja Mystery House. Du går ind, og du skal finde vej ud. “Lær om nogle af de indre arbejde i denne mystiske bygning,” inviterer parken, “så er det op til dig at flygte.” Der er roterende døre, hemmelige passager og andre fælder for at gøre en ret udfordring. Jeg valgte at springe over denne, fordi der igen var et ekstra gebyr.

Ninjaaaaaaaaa !!!!!!!

Toei Anime Museum

Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, One Piece. Bare et par af de mange anime på skærmen inde i museet. “Her vises på skærmen er originale billeder, animationsceller, salgsfremmende varer og mere fra nogle af Toeis klassiske billeder såvel som nye produktioner,” brages deres site. Det er temmelig hyggeligt, men det er nostalgi i massevis for dem, der havde udviklet en livslang bånd med disse figurer! Jeg var stooket!

Super Hero Land

Jeg tilbragte mange af min tid her på at søge efter ethvert medlem af Bioman. Jeg fandt Red One i selskab med andre Red Rangers fra andre meget Sentai -serier. Og wow! Der var 23 af dem! Jeg fandt også Masked Rider Black og Maskman! Der var også mecha og kaiju samlet i deres egne hjørner.

Rød!

Det var ikke en ideel dag. Regnen hældte nu og da, spottede alle og skubbede dem til at løbe for at dække hver gang. Jeg så heller ikke resten af ​​Bioman, og jeg så virkelig frem til at møde dem alle. (Især blå tre. Jeg var altid blå tre.) Det var også kort, fordi min flyvning tilbage til Manila blev planlagt senere samme dag. Men det var den højeste top af mit besøg i Kyoto. Eventuelt fordi jeg er en sucker efter alt, hvad der minder mig om barndommen. Eventuelt fordi jeg altid havde følt, at min ungdom gled væk, og det var godt at blive mindet om det. Muligvis fordi det bare var sjovt. Hvem er ligeglad med hvorfor? Alt, hvad jeg er sikker på, er, det føltes godt, at min Kyoto -tur sluttede ikke kun på en høj note, men med det ordsprog – hvad kalder de det? – bang.
