In the hometown of the fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen

there is a park called "Funabashi Andersen Park," which was ranked third in the "Japan Theme Park" category and among the top 10 in the "Asia Theme Park" category by the world's largest travel review site, TripAdvisor.

Experience endless fun in the five amusement areas!

The park covers an area of about 36.7 hectares, providing plenty of space for visitors to enjoy activities such as the "Brave Road," playing with small animals in the grassy square, and getting closer to nature. Visitors can also make art in the museum or view exhibitions, making for a happy and fulfilling time.

Mischievous Kingdom Area

This area boasts one of the largest "Brave Road" attractions in Japan, as well as a grassy plaza, a playground with small animals, and activities such as mini-golf, unusual bicycles, and a mini-railway that kids love.

Fairytale Hill Area

This area recreates the Danish countryside of the 19th century where world-renowned fairy tale master Hans Christian Andersen lived. Windmills are also a symbol of the park. The area was built with the full cooperation of the city of Odense, Denmark, and is full of exotic charm.

Children's Art Museum Area

The museum has a "studio" theme of "playing with your hands," as well as various experiential projects such as textiles, ceramics, dyeing, and printmaking. Children can use their imagination and creativity, experiencing the joy of making and producing art.

Flower Castle Area

This area features a "Four Seasons Garden" built on a high hill where visitors can feel the breeze on their face, as well as an art installation inspired by Andersen's fairy tales and a playground with amusement equipment for children. The area also has a nursing room and rest area, allowing visitors to feel the rhythm of the seasons and enjoy a leisurely time.

Nature Experience Area

This is a natural experience area built using existing forests and wetlands. Visitors can stroll along the walking path around the water's edge and the downstream paddy fields surrounded by aquatic plants, experiencing the different seasons of the mountainous natural environment.

The bright red "Community Center" in the Danish architectural style, like the windmills, is another symbol of the park.
