TOKYO DOME CITY

Description

Essentials about Tokyo Dome City in brief

Tokyo Dome City is one of the most popular sports, entertainment and amusement complexes in the Japanese capital. The Dome City consists of the Tokyo Dome baseball stadium, a theme park with numerous attractions, the Kōrakuen sports hall and the LaQua Spa. In addition, there is also a hotel and a variety of stores and restaurants on the premises. Especially for families with children, Tokyo Dome City is a very popular destination, because there is always something to see and do.

Attractions at Tokyo Dome City

The eponymous Tokyo Dome is the largest covered baseball stadium in the world. In addition to baseball games, however, concerts and other events also take place in the Dome. The event calendar of Tokyo Dome is therefore worth a look.

Most visitors to the Dome City, however, are drawn to the amusement park on the grounds. The two highlights of the amusement park are the Thunder Dolphin roller coaster, which incidentally winds through various structures, and the Big-O Ferris wheel, which surprisingly lacks a center suspension. A ride on the Ferris wheel gives one the opportunity to either look down on the Dome City area and surrounding neighborhoods, or sing karaoke in the gondola (or both at the same time).

Otherwise, the Dome City amusement park offers fun-filled attractions for every age group. At The Wonder Drop, you drop three stories down a track into a pool of water. At The Dive, you go on a hunt for pirate treasure. And in the Furifuri Grand Prix ride, even the very youngest have fun.

In addition to the amusement park, Tokyo Dome City is also home to a number of other attractions in the sports and entertainment sectors. Here you will find the largest indoor playground and the largest roller skate hall in Tokyo. You can also play bowling and table tennis at the Dome City and visit Spo-Dori! where you can try out a variety of sports.

If you need a break from so much fun and entertainment, the LaQua spa is an excellent place to relax. Opened in 2003, the spa and wellness facility even has its own hot spring. And if you’re feeling hungry or thirsty, the Dome City offers a choice of more than 70 different restaurants, cafés and bars serving Japanese and international cuisine.
