2026 Mitaka Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in February)

🎟️ We dedicated this day to one of the most atmospheric places in the city – the Ghibli Museum. We bought tickets back in November: sales for next month open on the 10th on the museum's official website. To increase my chances, I used three devices at once – and it really worked: on one of them, I managed to get almost to the front of the line. 🚉We left for the museum early. I wanted to take my time, find thematic manholes along the way, and stroll leisurely through the Mitaka district. It has a completely different rhythm – quiet streets, greenery, a sense of comfort and a break from the big city. 🎥The museum itself is not a classic exhibition, but a space for leisurely immersion. It's important not to rush through the halls, but simply walk and look around: the architecture, the staircases, the stained glass windows, examples of works – everything is filled with detail and attention to detail. Photography is not allowed inside, but that's actually a plus – you're less distracted and more immersed in the atmosphere. 🎞️ A separate and very special highlight is the small cinema inside the museum. We watched the short film "Kujiratori." It's a story about a boy and his imaginary adventure, beginning with an ordinary day in the garden. The story is calm and contemplative, conveying a child's perception of the world, where fantasy naturally intertwines with everyday life. The appearance of the whale feels like part of this imaginary world. Such short films are shown only in the museum, so watching them becomes a unique and memorable experience. 🟢I can definitely recommend the museum – especially for those who grew up watching Ghibli cartoons or simply enjoy thoughtful spaces with character and atmosphere. On the downside, the cafe was a bit disappointing. I really hoped to see themed food there, related to Ghibli characters or films, but the menu was rather bland. Expectations were higher in a place like this. Nevertheless, this didn't spoil the overall impression. 🏡This is one of those places in Tokyo you want to return to – not just for show, but for the feeling of comfort, quiet, and a leisurely immersion in a world created with love for detail. #cactustrek #Tokyo #GhibliMuseum

A dream museum for Studio Ghibli fans, filled with warmth and imagination. From scenes of famous animations, character models, to a small theater showcasing exclusive short animations, the atmosphere feels like stepping into Miyazaki's world. Photography is allowed only in certain areas, but walking through the museum will surely leave you smiling all the way. Tickets must be reserved in advance. How to get there: Take the JR train to Mitaka Station and walk for about 15 minutes. Admission fee: 1,000 yen 🍃

I visited the Ghibli Museum, where you can deeply explore the behind-the-scenes of Ghibli productions! From exhibition rooms where you can closely enjoy the mechanisms of animation creation, such as original drawings, animation sequences, and color design, to the rooftop garden where you can take photos with the Robot Soldier, the museum offers a complete experience of the Ghibli world. At the Saturn Theater, you can watch original short films that are exclusively shown here, with one film screened per period. The maze-like interior of the museum, filled with small windows, staircases, and intricate details, adds an adventurous feel to your visit. The special exhibitions and short films at the Saturn Theater change periodically, ensuring that every visit brings new discoveries and enjoyment. It's truly a wonderful museum to visit multiple times! ✨ [Mitaka no Mori Ghibli Museum] 📍 Address: 1-1-83 Shimorenjaku, Mitaka City, Tokyo 181-0013 🕘 Hours: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM (Closed on Tuesdays) 🚶 Access: About a 15-minute walk from JR Mitaka Station or Kichijoji Station 🚌 Bus: About a 5-minute ride on the community bus from JR Mitaka Station South Exit Bus Stop (Adults ¥230, Children ¥120 / IC card ¥50)

The Ghibli Museum (三鷹の森ジブリ美術館, Mitaka no Mori Ghibli Bijutsukan) is the animation and art museum of Miyazaki Hayao's Studio Ghibli, one of Japan's most famous animation studios. They have produced many feature length films, such as My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea. Located in Mitaka, just outside of central Tokyo, not far from Kichijoji, the museum is a must-see for fans of the films. The museum itself is whimsically designed in the distinct style of the studio's films, and many of their famous characters are there, including a life-sized robot from "Castle in the Sky" in the rooftop garden.

The Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo, is a museum dedicated to the animations of Studio Ghibli. Located in Mitaka City, Tokyo, Japan, it is just a 5-minute ride from Mitaka Station's south exit via the Ghibli bus 🚌. Inspired by the designs of Hayao Miyazaki, the museum features spiral staircases, a rooftop with a Laputa robot soldier, and the Saturn Theater, which screens exclusive short films 😆. Highlights include the Catbus play area, animation production exhibits (where you can see sketches and storyboards), and various special exhibitions. Please note that photography is not allowed inside the museum ‼️ Make sure to purchase tickets in advance‼️

1. Yayoi Ken A trip is more enjoyable when your stomach is full, right? I recommend 'Yayoi Ken,' where you can taste Japanese home-style meals. Here, you can start your day pleasantly with warm rice and miso soup~ There are no separate Korean or English menus, and ordering is done via kiosk, but the photos are clear, so ordering wasn’t difficult! 2. Ghibli Museum in Mitaka Forest ⏰ Hours: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM (Closed on Tuesdays) The Ghibli Museum, located in the forest of Mitaka in western Tokyo, is a paradise for fans of Ghibli animations like 'My Neighbor Totoro.' It’s a bit disappointing that only outdoor photography is allowed, but there are plenty of things to see, Ghibli goods, and a café, making it a great place to spend time~ ✔Tip: Advance reservation is a must!!! Book ahead before visiting~ 3. 3D Cat Billboard The 3D cat appearing on a large billboard near Shinjuku Station is a popular photo spot that has also gone viral on social media. Don’t miss the cute cat climbing up and down the screen! 4. Toho Building Godzilla One of Shinjuku’s landmarks, the Toho Building, is famous for its unique exterior with Godzilla climbing on it. If you’re a Godzilla fan, be sure to visit and take a commemorative photo. 5. Shinjuku Zundoya Ramen 'Shinjuku Zundoya Ramen' is famous for its clean and rich broth. Especially if you like rich flavors, I highly recommend their 'Tonkotsu Ramen'! 6. Tokyu Kabukicho Tower The last stop of your Shinjuku trip is the 'Tokyu Kabukicho Tower!' Experience the charm of modern Japan in this place full of the latest shopping malls and entertainment facilities~ I bought a drink at Starbucks on the first floor and checked out the arcade on the third floor! Since I don’t like loud places, I just watched the claw machines for a while and left quicklyㅜ

Here are must-visit Instagrammable spots in Tokyo! 1️⃣ Shibuya Scramble Crossing: It’s crowded, but somehow that’s what makes it so hip. Must get a proof shot📸 2️⃣ Ghibli Museum: You need to book tickets in advance, but it’s truly like a dream and so charming🌿 3️⃣ Tsutaya Bookstore @ Daikanyama: Coffee + books + atmosphere = the perfect healing time just for me☕️ 4️⃣ Shimokitazawa: Highly recommend if you love vintage shopping! From accessory shops to cafes, it’s packed with great spots🎀 5️⃣ DisneySea: A bit more mature and romantic than Disneyland. The photos come out amazing✨ Tokyo is a place where you can get magazine-worthy shots just by walking around, so pack your stylish outfits and don’t forget your selfie stick!

Tokyo is really fun, but if you don’t plan well, you might easily get caught out! Please keep these 8 "Tokyo Travel Precautions" handy, so even beginners can confidently explore Tokyo like pros～ ✅ Popular spots = race against time! Book in advance to avoid missing out Popular Tokyo attractions like the Harry Potter Studio, Shibuya SKY, and Ghibli Museum in Mitaka have reservation slots that get snapped up within minutes! It’s recommended to check the official websites in advance, set alarms, and book on time. Don’t wait until you arrive in Tokyo to find out tickets are sold out—you’ll really want to cry. ✅ Not everyone can enjoy Disneyland? Watch out for height restrictions Some rides at Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea have clear height restrictions for kids (e.g., Haunted Mansion, Tower of Terror). Families with children should check the official website beforehand to avoid disappointment and headaches from being turned away on-site. ✅ Don’t be a “cultural tourist” when visiting shrines and temples Please keep quiet when entering shrines and temples, ask if photography is allowed before taking pictures, and avoid entering sacred areas. Don’t make noise or take photos indiscriminately. This isn’t just formality—it’s respect for the culture. ✅ Be careful crossing the street in the opposite direction! Japan drives on the left side, opposite to China—when walking or crossing the street, remember to look right for cars! Both vehicles and pedestrians keep left, and people keep to the left on stairs too, which helps avoid collisions. The right side is for those in a hurry～ ✅ Perfect restaurant service = no tipping! In Tokyo, you don’t need to tip at restaurants or taxis; service charges are already included in the bill. Japanese people strongly believe “service is a duty,” and tipping might even cause misunderstandings. ✅ Strict garbage sorting, almost no trash bins on the street! You’ll hardly find trash bins on Tokyo streets, and garbage sorting is very strict (combustible, non-combustible, recyclable, etc.). It’s recommended to carry a small trash bag with you instead of looking for bins while walking. ✅ Want to save money? Don’t forget your passport! Most large malls and drugstores offer tax refunds—just show your passport to get tax exemption. Also, some stores offer extra discounts if you pay with Alipay, WeChat, or UnionPay, so remember to ask about promotions before buying. ✅ No smoking in public places—don’t be careless Most Tokyo neighborhoods and public places clearly mark no-smoking zones. Smoking is only allowed in designated smoking areas. Smoking on the street or while walking can lead to fines and dirty looks from passersby. Smokers, please pay attention to signs and avoid trouble over a cigarette. ✅ Don’t panic if there’s an earthquake Japan is an earthquake-prone area. When staying at a hotel, learn the emergency exits and evacuation routes. Stay calm during an earthquake, try to hide under sturdy furniture, and follow staff instructions. 🏷 To sum up Free travel in Tokyo isn’t hard, but to have fun, don’t overlook these small details. 👉 Save and share with your travel buddies to avoid detours and make your Tokyo trip even better!

I visited the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo🌳✨ (Reservation required!

This Tokyo trip was specially planned for a one-day tour of Kichijoji. After actually visiting, I feel that one day is still a bit short. The cat café, park, art museum, and secondhand shops all make you want to linger. If you want to fully explore and treasure hunt, consider staying nearby for a night. Buy an ice cream and a cream puff— leisurely stroll under the summer breeze. You can never get enough of the beautiful scenery here. If you have plenty of time, I strongly recommend treasure hunting at the secondhand boutique shops— brand new down jackets can be had for less than 10,000 yen. Uniqlo is also worth a visit, with Kichijoji-exclusive items. So cute and unique 😊 #Kichijoji #CatCafe #InokashiraPark #Tokyo #GhibliMuseumMitaka

Inokashira Park is located in Musashino City, Tokyo. It is a famous maple viewing spot in Tokyo, especially from mid-November to early December every year, when the maple leaves in the park are at their best viewing period. There are more than 90 species of maple trees here, mainly Japanese red maples. The colorful red leaves and golden leaves are intertwined to form a beautiful natural picture.

During the Edo period, this park was used by the Tokugawa Shogunate for falconry. In the Meiji era, water from the pond in the center of the garden was used for the first time as the "Kanda Josui" water channel for the streets of Edo. From then on, the water in the pond was actually used as drinking water until the improved waterway was completed in 1898. This pond is now known as the Inokashira Pond. #井のカド恩仕公園 There is a statue called "Benzaiten" on the west side of the pond. It stands on a floating island in the pond and has a small bridge. The bright red color of the shrine's main hall contrasts sharply with the surrounding green, making it very ornamental. #100 Ways to Travel

#springsummer2024 Ghibli Park (Japanese: ジブリパーク) is a theme park that will open on November 1, 2022. It is built in the Ai Chibli Memorial Park in Nagakute City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It uses the animated films released by Studio Ghibli as the theme of entertainment facilities. Ghibli fans must come and see! There are many manuscripts and ideas in it.

You can go there to buy it in reverse order.

Kichijoji is a good place to cool off in the summer #井之头恩事公园. Usually when you go to the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, you will definitely stop by Inokashira Park to enjoy this quiet and green ecological park in the bustling city. Especially when you visit during the cherry blossom season or maple leaf season, strolling by the pond is a great place to enjoy flowers. When people mention Inokashira Park, they usually think of it as a big park with swan boats (Ueno Park seems to have this feature as well?). It covers an area of ​​95 acres and is shaped like an inverted V. It consists of Inokashira Pond, Gotenyama, West Garden, and the Second Park. It includes three paid attractions: the Zoo, the Aquatic Garden, and the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka. It is a bit similar to the concept of an urban forest. Compared with other parks, Inokashira pays more attention to ecology. There are many varieties of trees and flowers, and flowers can be appreciated in all four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. Due to the large pond and dense forests, bird watching in the pond is also a highlight. From time to time, you can see a group of people bringing cannons to take pictures. If it is not the flower season, it might be a bit boring to just come to Inokashira Park. You should go to the Ghibli Museum or the downtown area of ​​Kichijoji. Whether it is the bustling Harmonica Yokocho shopping street or strolling through the alleys to explore shops, you can find some nice specialty shops. #日本探店 #东京景点 #Inokashira公園 #吉吉寺 #Mitakaの森ジブリ博物馆
