Great for Ghibli fans! Tingles of excitement rippled the moment I stepped in. Some tips to enhance the experience. Go at the earliest morning slots to avoid the crowd. Revisit the movies to refresh memory. Go with friends, if possible. Many photo shoots opportunities that will require help with. Don't exit the exhibit after one round, turn back and go another round. I took 2.5hrs in all. I have friends who spent 4 hours going for repeated rounds!

The Studio Ghibli Exhibition is a magical journey into the heart of one of the most beloved animation studios. Showcasing original sketches, storyboards, and life-sized recreations of iconic scenes, it beautifully captures the charm of films like Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro. Visitors can explore Totoro’s forest, step into the Catbus, and marvel at the artistry behind each masterpiece. The interactive features, such as craft stations, add a hands-on element, making it enjoyable for all ages. Thoughtfully curated and deeply immersive, the exhibition is a must-see for fans and anyone who appreciates creativity and storytelling at its finest.
