Get ready for an adventure like no other! A mind-blowing Pokemon-themed park is set to open its doors in the heart of Tokyo's suburbs, and it's a dream come true for fans worldwide.
On February 5th, PokePark Kanto will unveil its magical world, offering an immersive experience unlike any other. Imagine exploring a lush woodland filled with over 600 Pokemon characters, each more adorable than the last!
But here's where it gets controversial... This park isn't just any old theme park. It's an outdoor permanent attraction, the first of its kind, dedicated to the beloved Japanese game and animation franchise.
PokePark Kanto will span an impressive 26,000 square meters within Yomiuri Land, a popular amusement park in Inagi, Tokyo. Visitors can expect to embark on an unforgettable journey, searching for their favorite Pocket Monsters and enjoying parades led by the iconic Pikachu.
The website teases, "Here, Pokemon Trainers can explore a forest and town filled with more than 600 Pokemon!" And they're not kidding! The park will feature two main areas: the Pokemon Forest, with a 500-meter walking trail, and Sedge Town, where visitors can indulge in food, shop for goodies, and participate in exciting events.
For those eager to secure their spot, entry tickets will be allocated by lottery, with applications opening on November 21st at 6 p.m.
There are two ticket types available: the "Ace Trainer's Pass" grants access to both the forest and town zones at any time, priced at 14,000 yen for adults and 11,000 yen for children. The "Trainer's Pass" offers entry to the forest during a designated time slot, with unlimited access to the town zone, priced at 7,900 yen for adults and 4,700 yen for children.
And this is the part most people miss... Ticket prices vary by day, so plan your visit wisely! All ticket types also include admission to the Yomiuriland amusement park, making it a double dose of fun.
With the global success of Pokemon Go, an augmented reality game that has taken the world by storm, it's no surprise that this outdoor attraction is generating buzz.
So, are you ready to catch 'em all? Mark your calendars and get ready for an adventure that will leave you with unforgettable memories.
