Tobu World Square #1

Tobu World Square is the world of miniatures located in Kinugawa Onsen, Tochigi Prefecture. It houses as many as 102 historic relics and architectures built in the 1/25th of the original size. The entrance fee is 2,500 yen (2,000 for pre-purchase tickets). But since I got the Tobu's Kinugawa Themepark pass, the entrance fee was already included in the package.


The park is divided into Modern Japan, America, Egypt, Europe Zone, Asia, and Japan Zones. Each sections not only portray the famous architectures, but also the lives at those sites. It was quite interesting to take a close look into these people. Time required: a little over 2 hours.
