Go by car, there is a parking lot next to the entrance. There are many check-in slots, and there is a ten-minute electronic version of the Kitty Show. The food in Yushou Box restaurant is of good quality. You can go straight to the lunch market without a reservation. You can also interact with Kitty and take pictures. It is worth going.

i’m rating this high because i enjoyed the game that came with the entrance fee. the souvenirs and food are pricey. we only tried the dessert but I cannot say it’s super yum for the price. the commute was very inconvenient for us ( not sure if that’s because of the weather & holidays, we went during the golden week) . most visitors have their own cars and look well-off , if ur a fan u should try coming .

If you are a real Hello Kitty lover you are going to love this place. I brought my toddler here and she had so much fun. I am not really into Sanrio but view of the ocean by the cafe is so relaxing as well as the hello kitty themed cakes and drinks. It is a bit far away from Awaji interchange (if you are commuting) but there are free shuttle buses in the area.

A must-go place for Hello kitty fans. There are many places to check in. The scenery is beautiful, but the traffic is inconvenient. You have to check it out on the Internet·
