What other travelers are saying about Arakawa Yuen Amusement Park
The worst and trouble park in the world !!! All rides stopped because of the wind, but the staffs didn't tell us before buying tickets, no one knows English only Japanese, all tickets were non-refundable even though nothing can play, goddess it's wasting time to be here!!! The staffs are not helpful and cannot even speak any English, not explaining anything. They should fire those staffs which cannot speak in English and it willing to help, just keeping saying no refund.
I visited the Arakawa amusement park on my last day in Tokyo with my 3 year old. The lights are beautiful at night, but this was in the middle of winter and it was bitter cold. The Ferris wheel is a must because you get to see the whole city for 4 tickets for adults and 2 tickets for children. Each ticket costs 100 yen and my wife, son and I were in the insulated Ferris wheel for 9 warm and enjoyable minutes. Children can play most games for 1 ticket. The best part of the park was the friendly staff. I caught a taxi from my hotel to the park at 6pm not knowing that this was not a popular/busy part of Tokyo. We left at 7:30PM and tried to find a taxi, but there were none in sight. We rushed back to the park and asked the staff to help us call a taxi. They immediately helped and even wrote instructions on a note to help us communicate with the driver. I am so thankful for the help of the park staff and will visit again on my next visit to Japan.
Super fun for young children and primary school goers. Get the unlimited one day pass and the kids can go on unlimited rides. The kids’ amenities are perfect and clean. Lovely day here as a fam!
Arakawa Amusement Park offers breathtaking views and natural beauty that truly captivate visitors. Whether you're strolling through the park during the day or enjoying the illuminated landscape in the evening, the scenery is simply stunning. The park's extended hours until 8 pm, especially on weekends and holidays, provide ample opportunity to soak in the mesmerizing sights. From lush greenery to shimmering lights, Arakawa Amusement Park is a picturesque oasis that never fails to delight.
Never imagined that we have this much enjoyable amusement park in the center of Tokyo! While coming here, you can enjoy riding experience of Tokyo’s classic tram which makes perfect day off with your kids!
Yes, the park has a parking lot, but spaces are limited. Since it is easily accessible by the Toden Arakawa tram, taking public transportation is recommended.
No, tickets are available at the entrance, and there is no need for advance booking. The park rarely gets overcrowded, so buying tickets on the same day is easy.
Arakawa Yuen is in Tokyo’s Arakawa Ward, near the Arakawa Shako-mae Station on the Toden Arakawa tram line. The tram adds to the park’s old-fashioned atmosphere and is a fun way to arrive.
The park features a Ferris wheel with a city view, a small roller coaster, a merry-go-round, a petting zoo, and a scenic miniature train ride. These attractions make it perfect for families with young children.
