Asakusa Hanayashiki — Attraction in Tokyo

It is a small park but there are many rides. The entrance is 1000 yen for adult and 500 yen for kids above 6 years. After entering the park you have two options; either buy 100 yen tickets (each ride needs specific number of these) or you can take one day pass which costs 2500 yen for adult, 2300 yen for middle school, 2000 yen for kids between 2 to 4 years old. An adult can accommodate a kid for free in the rides. I would highly recommend taking a day pass as in the end it will be much cost effective.

Both adults and kids enjoy very well here and it is one of our favorite parks in Tokyo. The rides are well maintained and the staffs are very accommodating. Both kids and adults enjoy alike in this park. There is a dance show organized at 3pm in this place. If you have kids do not miss it as they enjoy very well.

We usually go there in the morning and stay till evening and you can go and back the same day if you have a day pass so multiple entries allowed. There are many small shops that sell both snacks, food and ice creams. Also there are multiple vending machines and is convenient.

The park looks slightly cramped though but I would say it is a moving crowd and one can enjoy very well. One can see other rides close by when riding on something which looks fun in my opinion. If you can take off one a weekday I would say go for it because you can ride a lot of times the same ride as there is less crowd.

There is a roller coaster in the park that is enjoyable for both kids and adults and unlike other parks this one is very friendly and you want to ride it multiple times.

Asakusa shrine and shopping streets are nearby so an evening shopping after exiting the park is a good feeling. Hope this helps, enjoy...

I had a good time walking around and playing the games. It's 1,000¥ to enter and you pay for ride tickets or a bracelet at a different booth. For the midway games you pay 500¥ at a little machine and then take the ticket to the right attendant. Ring toss is always rigged, but the floating-ball scoop is neat and the cork gun is a little different from the airgun I'm used too.

Bandai was running some kind of collaboration event at the time, it looks like you could do some kind of stamp rally but I don't know any more than that.

The park it's self is small and as an American I didn't want to accidentally break a ride by being huge or put an attendant in the place of having to ask me to not ride something. I've already knocked my head more than once.

It would be nice if there was an English sign with big red letters warning that if you cross the turnstile to the gatcha store, you need to walk about around to re-enter. I wasn't sure if my ticket was good for reentry or not. There was a sign over the threshold in Japanese on the inside of the gatcha store, but by that point I had already walked a few loops of the park.

Would be fun for tourists with children, maybe not so interesting for...

Visited on a Wednesday and wasn’t busy at all. Hardly to no wait times to go on rides. Between each ride, staff members disinfected the seats and hand rails and also ensured you use the alcohol spray before entering each time. Admission is ¥1000 and doesn’t include tickets for each ride. There is a free pass for an additional ¥2500, otherwise most rides are ¥300 a go or ¥600 for the larger ones like the roller coaster. The park being the oldest in Japan, it’s definitely something to check out and you can easily spend an hour or two here. The helicars and sky ships provide great views of Skytree and Asakusa and the roller coaster is only a 1 minute and 30 second ride but has got a little more “umph” than you would expect 😉 Food wise there aren’t many options, I recommend venturing out of the park and into the shopping arcades around the area for some really great traditional cuisine and delicious deserts! Overall I had a really great time that I forgot to take photos, so that should give you a...
