It bills itself as the oldest amusement park in Japan: 170 years.
It is squeezed in behind the Asakusa temple, in a space too small for a park, and that is the point: the rides pass between the buildings and over people's heads. The website calls it 「日本最古の遊園地」, the oldest in Japan.
In 2026 the park celebrates 「開園170周年記念」, a hundred and seventy years since opening, which puts its founding around 1856, that is, in the last years of the shogunate, before Japan opened up.
ℹ️ 10:00–18:00, ⚠️ but the website warns that the hours change with the season and the weather, and refers to an operating calendar: check that, not the general hours. The price is not on the page that was read. Behind Sensō-ji, in Asakusa.
