MAK家BLOG: Universal Studio Japan (Osaka) 8 - Universal Wonderland and Others

"It is so Hot....." (This is What the kids said in August 2023)

After coming out of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, our kids felt tired.

We entered USJ, went directly to Minions Park, then went to Jurassic Park, Super Nintendo World and Harry Potter. We had completed a lap in USJ.

Return to the "Universal Wonderland" next to the main gate. This is an area focusing on Hello Kitty, Cookies Monster, and Snoopy, the ride and attractions are less exciting and children oriented. The queuing time of them was 30 minutes only. Moreover, it is a beautiful area for photo taking and taking rest.

(I would like to experience this Snoopy ride, but I had not enough time to do so.)

In Universal Wonderland, there is a very large indoor playing area. It is a suitable place for children and toddlers.

(A very nice place for taking photos.)

(The cars are for photo only.)

(It is necessary to have drink during Summer. I loved this one which was tasty but not expensive.)

4:20 pm, after a break we watched Jujutsu Kaisen The Real 4D (It is periodic attraction and the theme had been changed to Detective Conan now, so I won't spend time to describe.)

The Show was in Japanese. I think Detective Conan would be the same.

Watched the 4D show, we moved to the last attractions in USJ - Doraemon XR ride. The theme of ride had been changed to Kimetsu no Yaiba in 2024. It is a exciting ride with VR effect. My kids loved this ride even more than Mario Kart and Harry Potter.

I will recommend to experience even though the characters and story has been changed. Undoubtedly it will cause a bit dizzy for me so I arranged to experience this before I left.

Following the crowd home, our kids keep discussing everything just happened in USJ.

In the early morning, we were too rush and had not paid attention to surroundings. Actually there were many restaurants and shops nearby USJ gate.

"Let go to Osaka again!" When I planned to have our family tour in 2025, my daughter gave me this suggestion.

I took out the Petry Piranha and "talked" to it. Watched it shaking head according to the sound, I was looking back this wonderful experience......

Recently, I looked for USJ and found this introduction about top 10 attractions in USJ. A bit similar to what I am thinking.

"Hey Daddy, let plan to USJ again!"

"No, it is too expensive."

In my opinion, even if I have only one day in Osaka, I will consider including USJ in my itinerary. The purely concern is Money.

The story of my USJ experience had been finished. Thank You for watching!

(Please notice that it is my journey in 2023, I have tried to review the information validity of that when I rewrite this in English. Moreover, my first language is Chinese so it would be great if I can get any feedback about my grammatic and writing mistakes. Thanks for your reading.)
