The Toei Kyoto Studio Park(東映太秦映画村)


I went to the Toei Kyoto Studio Park(東映太秦映画村) which is a film set and theme park last weekend. Actually, many Japanese movies have been produced in there.



Many traditional buildings as you can see the photo are used as a backdrop for filming historical movies and television dramas.

If you walk through this small town, you can feel as if you had been transported through time to Japanese old age.


Also, there are many attractions such as Ninja show(忍者ショー) and a fun house(お化け屋敷).
I think everyone from adults to children can enjoy there.
Besides, you can dress up in period dress such as samurai costumes and get photographed there.

I think you can definitely have a good experience there. I really recommend to go there when you come to Kyoto.

It takes about 30 mins by tube and walk from A-yado.
