I would not have come here if not for my friend who was into Little Twin Stars from Sanrio...
This is actually an indoor amusement park that is quite big so you do not need to buy tickets in advance like other museums (such as Ghibli and Doraemon). Weekend tickets are slightly more expensive and you can actually buy at flat rate of SG$33 at JTB in Singapore.
They were celebrating their 25th anniversary of pinkness overkill.
Inside is a large space around a wisdom tree. Unfortunately the boat ride (maybe the only ride) in the park was closed. Visitors look like mostly Japanese girls and foreign tourists.
Yes shops everywhere! Will my money go to My Melody, Twin Star or Kitty!?!?
Feel free to sit down on a character sofa while you think!
Not a fan of My Melody but the decoration was nice~
Pink pink everywhere!
What if... the person inside the My Melody costume was a GUY!?
P.S. The girls were actually fan girls all dressed up for their trip, they do not work at Puroland though I think they have potential for it.
The top floor self-service restaurant was quite nicely decorated too.
Though curry can be overly artificially coloured...
I ordered western meal, it was ok!
Tastes ok but picture perfect dessert ;P
I think my money went to My Melody in the end.
They have a parade too like Disneyland and the acrobatic performance was awesome!
Outside was still drizzling so we caught this double rainbow. Although this place is 1.5 hour ride from Tokyo, it was quite fun and we spent the entire day there.
Because my photo of the markers received so many shares, I realised that many artists are interested about the markers and perhaps want to know where to buy them from. Hence I wrote this guide for artists to shop in COPIC heaven aka Tokyo. ★ UPDATE NOV 2017: Please refer to my new article for latest updates on COPIC marker shopping! >>> Ultimate Guide to Copic marker shopping in Tokyo, Japan
This post has nothing to do with Japan, except that I have the tendency to fall sick during long Japanese holidays like year end and golden week. So with weak Japanese medicine not working, and even with kiwis and lemon honey drink all failing, I resorted to my friend's advice: coke and ginger . It sounded unusual so I googled and found the recipe. Amazingly, many people swear that it works wonder to cure their coughs and sore throats, so I decided to try out of desperation because I had already been coughing for four days and four nights. Preparation: Put a can of coke (around 350ml) and sliced ginger into a pot and bring to boil, simmer for 10 mins. You can either add lemon when it was simmering or squeezed lemon juice after you pour into your mug. *I couldn't get old ginger from my Japanese supermarket so I used young ginger that was not so spicy. Verdict: I couldn't believe it, but it tasted rather good! Even my friend who disliked ginger said this remedy taste...
Because my previous guide "Where to buy COPIC markers in Tokyo", was an all-time hit with 30,000 page views, I decided to do an updated version for all illustrators who are planning to buy COPIC markers in Tokyo.
Weee ... I like that place. I should go here.
