history of all of Japan railway, many interactive displays, real trains for photo taking, value for money, recommended for 3-4hour visit!
It is a rail heaven if you’re a fan of trains. A very high benchmark on how train museums must be built and run, and is natural that Japan must have the best one considering the culture of train travel. My son enjoyed a lot especially with Shinkansen train models and huge small scaled track units where model trains ran for about 15 mins. Definitely a must do on visit to Kyoto.

Can watch Dolphin inside. Worth to have a look for those who never watch dolphin in real life with very near distance.
It has everything it needs. It doesn't look big and it takes 2 hours to see it all. Tickets at the door are 2400 for adults and 1200 for children, so buying tickets on Ctrip is affordable. Tickets are issued in real time and can be exchanged manually at the counter for admission.

I went specifically for this event, but it turned out to be a cosplay gathering of young Japanese people.
There were many foreigners and Koreans, and the locals were mostly anime and manga enthusiasts.
It's similar to a Halloween event at Happy Valley, with a haunted house and exhibitions. I happened to see the parade and the "hundred ghosts dancing" performance, which lasted about half an hour. It was incredibly crowded. I don't recommend eating inside; you can go out to eat after the event.
Saint Seiya, Slam Dunk, none of these... Mainly ninja and samurai themes, Edo period architecture, and a lot of content about Kamen Rider. The place is very small, but the service is enthusiastic. Many people rented Japanese costumes to take photos. There are not many Chinese people. Bring your kids there. You can rent a ninja outfit for 1,000 yen, buy a headscarf and wear it, and you can shoot Jay Chou's "Ninja" MV.
