Sanrio Puroland – The Hello Kitty World

Sanrio Puroland is only worth visit for super Hello Kitty fans. For me, it’s a place for kids. What Sanrio Puroland can offer is cuteness and expensive shopping, nothing else! There is nothing much inside. I bought the 3000 Yen ticket, which is only for entrance and free show, but exclude entrance to Hello Kitty’s house (all the cutest things are in there).

This is quite a small place, can finish wandering around within 30 minutes. Next is to spend time in the shops and get some Hello Kitty products that is expensive and can be purchased elsewhere.

I was disappointed with what I get in here, this trip to Sanrio Puroland was a total waste of time and money. It’s better to spend whole day in Disneyland.

How to get there:

Shinjuku Station ------------------------------ Keio Line (40 min) -------------------------------> Tama Center Station

Ticket (Same day purchase):

For entrance and all free shows: Adult (18 years old and above) 3000 Yen

Passport: (Get the passport if you would like visit Hello Kitty’s house)

For entrance and all attractions: Adult (18 years old and above) 4000 Yen
