Things to be aware of (crowds, manners, seasonal precautions, etc.)
- Crowds: Weekends, public holidays, and long holidays (spring break, summer vacation, New Year's holidays) are extremely crowded. Popular attractions have long wait times, so it is effective to go right after opening or in the evening, or to use advance tickets or passports to shorten the wait time.
- Ride safety standards: There are some attractions that have height or age restrictions, and some that are not suitable for pregnant women or those with heart conditions, so be sure to check the warning signs for each attraction.
- Physical condition/susceptibility to motion sickness: VR and rides with intense movements can easily cause motion sickness, so if you are prone to motion sickness, we recommend that you refrain from participating in advance or limit your use to a short period of time.
- Photography etiquette: Photography may be prohibited inside attractions and some exhibits. Please follow the instructions of staff and signs in the museum.
– Belongings/Lockers: Large luggage can be dangerous on moving attractions, so please use lockers or designated storage areas.
- Eating, drinking, and smoking: The building is primarily a non-smoking area, and smoking areas are limited. Please eat and drink in designated eating and drinking spaces or at the restaurant within the building.
Weather and clothing: Although it is an indoor facility, it is convenient to bring something to wear when going outside as it can be windy along the coast.
- Check the latest information: Attraction changes, opening hours, fees, collaboration events, temporary closures, etc. are subject to change, so please check the official website or social media for the latest information before visiting.
