The room was spacious, the staff were friendly, and the vending machines downstairs were very convenient. Ghibli Park was fantastic; die-hard fans should definitely go!

NAGOYA Sightseeing Pass (Nagoya)
2026/08/13
Simply show your QR code before entering to get in. This grants free access to several museums. We had two young children with us, and we tried our best to walk quickly. Although we could only visit the Magnet Museum, the Central Taiwan Power Tower, and the Aquarium, it was still worth the ticket price and a great experience. We would definitely buy the ticket again next time.
