I was looking through some of the coupons book when I came to see an amusement park I have never heard of. With the discounted price ticket being nearly 50% off, I decided on that spot that I would want to bring my two sons there. Who would know that this decision would get me to one of the historical Japanese amusement parks.
Seibu amusement park is located on the area that requires you to walk up and down hill in order to go around the park. So it would take you more energy to walk around here than Tokyo Disneyland where most of the areas are flat. But as the day we went were a sunny winter day, we did enjoy ourselves running around in a pretty nice weather. Most of the attractions here did not require much waiting time so my sons were able to run to one attraction after the other and the longest waiting time we spend that was 15 minutes at the Kitty Train.
And this is one of the most famous areas here which is called ‘Kitty Fairy Town’ where all the attractions will be decorated with Sanrio characters and all of the attractions here are suitable for toddlers. There are mini ferris wheel that let you choose the characters you want to sit on, Kitty-chan roller coaster, Shinkansen railway and the Kitty Train which will let you go around this fairy land. Of cause my two sons had a really great time at this Kitty Fairy Town that they did not want to leave.
Other than this, there is also a big tower that has like a donut shape ring around it where the inside was sitting space which will bring you up the tower which slowly rotating to let you have the good view of the amusement park and the area nearby. You can bring your little kids up to enjoy the view without feeling afraid of heights. From up the tower my son could see the big ferris wheel and so that was where our next stop would be.
And one day passed by like a blink of an eye as my sons were all very excited about the attractions which they did not have to line up for 30 minutes for their 2 minutes ride. They were able to run around and I did not have to worry that they will run into anyone. Also I did not have to hurry myself thinking that if we waste our time here that would mean more waiting time at out next ride. I was able to able to enjoy watching my sons run wild and while spending my day off at a peaceful pace. I would definitely come back here again in the future if I have time.
