Tokyo Dome City

I suggest you go to Tokyo Dome City, a large amusement park. We went there on a Thursday afternoon. There were very few people… nice! The waiting time in queues didn’t exceed 10 minutes. There are many young people who frequent this park. The framework is enjoyable with water fountains, benches and many place to eat: fast food,  restaurants, cafes… There are also baseball stores and you can also attend a baseball game in Tokyo Dome.

You should go there starting at 5pm and buy the Night Pass. It costs only 3,000 yen.

The greatest attraction of the Tokyo Dome City is the Thunder Dolphin! It’s a rollercoaster that goes into the mall. In fact it crosses the wall …

Just for this attraction, you must pay 1000 yen. With the Night you have an unlimited access to the various attractions between 5pm and 8pm!  I was told that on weekends there are lots of people! The queues are often 30 minutes or even longer. So if you can, really avoid going on the weekend. Weekdays it’s perfect! You’ll love it.

The other cool attraction is “Ashikari no Ie”. A haunted house with the atmosphere of horror movies like The Ring or The grudge. Entrance fee is 800 yen.

Before entering you must take off shoes and the hostess will explain the rules: don’t run, no photos and don’t touch the actors or hit them … The goal is to walk through the house.

Upon entering the first room you’re directly put into the atmosphere: a dark room and close, on the other side there is a mirror looking at you… There’s also very disturbing noises and unnerving background music.

I went with a friend who was more scared than me. We were pushing ourselves to see who would go first. After 5 minutes we came back to the entrance. What a shame! I changed to other friend who was less scared.  It was much less stressful. But in this kind of haunted house you tend to be very paranoid.

Finally it took me over 10 minutes to cross the house while most of people cross in less than 2 minutes.

Conclusion: I am a big coward! Yes I assume!
