Amazing, the staff are super friendly and kind. The trains are super exciting and entertaining (just a big loud), some kids won't like the sound but that's a problem that happens. The scenery is breathtaking, cherry blossom trees by the track. there's a museum of trains, with a lunch area on the second floor, toilets, and mini trains going around in circles on an amazing mini landscape of buildings/docks/roads/tracks.

I will add photography soon. I can't...
