Thanks for visiting my blog:) I too would be fascinated by a place like Nara Dreamland.

Thanks a lot – it’s actually one of the most popular ones, too. I still have material for half a dozen postings, maybe it’s about time to put the pieces together for some articles.

Can you imagine if they reopened that place as a tourists attraction how much money they could make?

Nara Dreamland is the most famous least known tourist attraction in Nara – hugely popular amongst urban explorers, but almost completely unknown even to locals. Does Canberra have a similar location?

Spirited Away was published in 2001, Nara Dreamland was closed in 2006, I started going there in 2009 – so no, ND wasn’t the inspiration for SA.

It’s very interesting to read about the Nara Dreamland. I live in Canberra Australia, and the two places are sister cities.

Was this the inspiration for Teruma Miyazaki’s animated film masterpiece “Spirited Away”?
