What other travelers are saying about Edo Wonderland Nikko Edomura
When the cherry blossom is nearly over in Tokyo, the flowers here are still blossoming! How lucky we were.
The lady driver bringing us to the theme park from JR station for free was friendly and told us how it’s like when the theme park was about to close. She really loved seeing the ritual there. Thank her for her genuine sharing. The ninja staff there were very friendly too. My kid loved the missions there. And the ninja show was excellent. You should not miss it!
The items in the souvenir shop are high quality!
Loved this place and its vibe! I went in spring, the weather was perfect, and there were some awesome cherry trees. It's surrounded by mountains and so peaceful. Dressing up as an Edo period character and walking around that Edo city was such a cool experience. The staff and the characters were all super friendly. Definitely catch the shows – they're hilarious.
I went there quite late since the route from Tokyo was quite confusing. I recommend to start from Tokyo since early morning like maybe 7 or 8am so you can enjoy the whole park.
Didn’t know that they have scheduled performance, I got quite lot of perfomances but I missed the Geisha walks.
Also if you come early, you can rent the costume for the whole day. If you come late, it would be not worth it since we have to return at maximum 4pm.
Overall, I love it!
This is one of the best theme parks i have experienced. Truly unique day to enjoy the culture and the architecture in the Edo days.
The park is truly stunning and we were walking around in awe of everything.
The staff are friendly and engaging. However they don’t speak much english in this part of town. Just to be aware. But they try very hard to accommodate you.
I recommend renting the costumes in the park to fully immerse yourself in the experience.
There are games and activities such as shuriken throwing and archery. Shows and acting within the park.
They have food stalls like the old days and restaurants to sit down and eat. All very good experience like in the movies and anime.
Remember to bring cash to the park as most places only accept cash only.
You get your tickets there on the day - can pay by card.
Bus can take you to the park from the station kinugawa onsen.
Which takes 20 mins.
Spectacular! We had so much fun and learned a lot. Our best day in Japan so far! Warning to vegetarians and vegans: there is virtually nothing to eat because everything has Benito flakes so pack a lunch. (Same warning for those allergic to seafood.) Hopefully they will add a vegetarian option to one of the many menus soon?
If yes are there when they open the gates in the morning there is a special ceremony. Honestly, the whole day was fantastic (other than the lack of a no meat or fish lunch option.)
