Miniatures that are even more lifelike: Take your breath away at "SMALL WORLDS TOKYO".

Located in Ariake, Tokyo, "SMALL WORLDS TOKYO" is one of Asia's largest all-weather, immersive miniature parks, enjoyable even on rainy days.

The first thing that catches your eye is the dynamic spectacle created using the latest technology. From rockets roaring into the sky to airplanes taking off and landing just like the real thing, the intricately moving miniatures are sure to leave both adults and children breathless.

Furthermore, a major attraction unique to this location is that it's the only place in the world where the "world of anime" has been officially recreated in miniature. In the area recreating scenes from Evangelion, you can experience an overwhelming sense of immersion as if you've stepped right into the world of the anime. The familiar streets of Shibuya are also recreated on a 1/80 scale, and you're sure to discover something new when you view the city from above.

Just a 20-minute drive from Haneda Airport, this place regularly hosts exciting limited-time collaboration events. Why not experience the profound wonder of this "small world" that can be enjoyed even on rainy days?

Preserve your travel memories in 3D instead of photos – a new way to create lasting travel memories.

Miniatures that are even more lifelike: Take your breath away at "SMALL WORLDS TOKYO".

Experiences that allow you to not only see but also create a lasting impression of yourself are extremely popular.

By getting a 3D scan in a dedicated booth inside the museum, you can create a "figure of yourself" in 1/80, 1/35, or 1/24 scale, faithfully reproducing your outfit and facial expression from that day. As it allows you to preserve your current appearance in three dimensions, it's a popular way to record your family's growth or as a unique souvenir to give to grandparents who live far away.

There's no need to worry about it being a burden to carry. On the day of the event, all you need to do is scan it in about 5 seconds. The finished figure will be carefully packaged and delivered to your home at a later date. Reuniting with "little versions of yourself" that arrive after your trip will be a special moment that allows you to continue enjoying your journey.

Feel like a craftsman! Create a one-of-a-kind miniature in our "Miniature Making Experience"

Miniatures that are even more lifelike: Take your breath away at "SMALL WORLDS TOKYO".

SMALL WORLDS offers a unique and luxurious experience where you can not only observe but also create your own "miniature world" with your own hands. We'll introduce you to the appeal of this authentic workshop that will captivate both adults and children.

Inside the museum, there's a workshop space where you can immerse yourself in miniature creation, feeling like a true modeler. Assembling intricate parts, painting... This time spent concentrating and forgetting about everyday life is the perfect way to refresh yourself. You can take your finished creation home as a wonderful souvenir of your trip.

The menu you can create ranges from "quintessentially Japanese landscapes" popular with tourists visiting Japan to fantastical worlds, offering a wide variety of options. Choose your favorite from the many choices that change with the seasons and time of year. You're sure to develop an attachment to the landscape as it gradually takes shape in your hands.

Even if you're worried because you're clumsy, don't worry! Here, professional modelers who actually create the exhibited works will carefully teach you the tricks of the trade. It's a truly unique and valuable experience to be able to learn how to use tools and finishing techniques while watching professional techniques up close. Anyone, from young children to adults in their 20s to 40s, can create a high-quality piece of work.
