Down near Tokyo Bay in Toyosu (home of the new fish market), Kidzania Tokyo is a work-themed entertainment complex where kids can try “working” in various professions.
KidZania Tokyo: nakashi
We know: the idea of a “work-themed” entertainment complex sounds oxymoronic: Why would anyone want to work for fun?! However, this place is cooler than it sounds. It’s a mini-world where kids can try their hands at all sorts of professions in a fun and engaging way.
It can sometimes be a little tricky to figure out the system and how to get your kids into each activity, but kids definitely love the place. We recommend buying tickets in advance from the website (see below).
