💜Summer vacation is here, and for those babies who are worrying about where to play, please mark this Universal Studios' 【Mario】 theme park – although it's in Osaka, with various barriers now gone, traveling to 🇯🇵Japan is so easy～ Go for it～ 🤍This place is really a paradise for fans of the 2D world, it's so photogenic, you can dress up as Mario, strike a pose, and there's a watch in the store that makes the sound of hitting a coin block when you wear it, which is super cool～ It instantly transported me into the Super Mario game～ 💕🚁🧸👙🌈YOYO takes you traveling 🌈👙🧸🚁💕 🇯🇵⛩️Japan Edition⛩️🇯🇵 This time at the theme park, I didn't buy the express pass, and from the actual experience, I didn't feel it was necessary. Planning ahead and making full use of the single rider line is the real time-saving secret. The Harry Potter area The queue time was the longest of all the attractions, but it wasn't particularly annoying because the line was orderly, and everyone was quiet and well-behaved, whether they were queuing or chatting. Find an empty locker to store your bag, and from personal experience, don't go in holding your phone in your hand to play; if you need to bring your phone, it's best to have it in a pocket that can be tightened or hang it around your neck. The game itself isn't particularly thrilling, but that day I went in holding my phone, and I was worried the whole time about it falling out – which made it a thousand times more nerve-wracking. As a matter of course, I had a butterbeer at the Hog's Head pub, and it tasted good.

If you decide to buy a fast pass on a whim and find out that all the slots for your favorite attractions are sold out 😭, don't worry, I still managed to hit all the popular ones! The first thing to do after entering the park is to download the universal studios japan app and draw for a time slot to enter the Super Nintendo World 🎫 (if you're with a group, make sure to log in on the same phone to draw at the same time). I drew mine a little after 8 am, and basically, you can choose any time throughout the day, FREE! I chose 11 am 🕚. As long as you get up early and pick the right order, it's not a problem to hit six or seven attractions in one day 😎. Entering the park at this time in the morning, you can usually go straight to two popular attractions with only about a 30-minute wait ⌛. 🌟 Recommended attraction rankings: 1. The Flying Dinosaur roller coaster 🎢 2. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey (with VR glasses, it's really realistic!) 3. Mario Kart (requires VR glasses, very immersive!) 4. Yoshi's Adventure (super cute, perfect for taking photos in the Mario kart!) 5. Flight of the Hippogriff 🦅 6. Jaws 🦈 7. Waterworld show (check the schedule in advance, line up half an hour early to rest your feet~ the effects are amazing, and the actors give it their all!) You can also stroll around the park, check out the Jurassic dinosaurs 🦕, take photos in Hollywood 📷, or go shopping 🛍️. You can basically have fun until six in the evening, and then it's time to head home for dinner 🍽️!

Step into a world of enchantment at Universal Studios Japan's Harry Potter experience. Accompanied by my sister, we embarked on an unforgettable adventure that left us spellbound. The moment we arrived, we were greeted by the awe-inspiring sight of Hogwarts Castle, standing tall and majestic against the sky. Eager to immerse ourselves in the wizarding world, we wasted no time queuing up for the famous Butterbeer. Despite the 30-minute wait, the first sip of the sweet, frothy concoction made it all worthwhile. As we explored the intricately designed streets of Hogsmeade, we couldn't resist capturing the magic in front of the iconic Hogwarts Express. Every step we took revealed new wonders, from browsing mystical wands at Ollivanders to experiencing the heart-pounding thrill of the Forbidden Journey ride. The attention to detail was astonishing, making us feel like true witches and wizards. Universal Studios Japan's Harry Potter experience is a haven for fans of J.K. Rowling's beloved series. It's a journey that transports you into the pages of the books and brings the magic to life. Without a doubt, it was an adventure my sister and I will cherish forever. #summervacation #themepark #urbanexplorer #mytripvlog #awesomepic #passionpassport #japan

I visited Japan a long time ago, and here I'm sharing some practical advice. Before departure: Use the USJ APP in the morning of your visit to bind your ticket (you can also bind your partner's or family's tickets together), the method is shown in the image above. It is recommended to arrive 1/2 hour before the park opens, as USJ might open its gates earlier. (When I went, the scheduled opening time was 0900, I arrived at 0710, but they opened at 0740), once you get to the USJ station, just follow the crowd (you'll see many people start running, just run along!) There are three ways to enter the Mario area: : Be among the first group of people; you don't need to use the App to draw a timed entry ticket for the area, just head straight to the Mario area after the gates open, and you don't really need to run, walking is fine. : Use the App to draw a timed entry ticket (the App will start the draw when Mario reaches a certain number of people, so generally, you can't draw within half an hour after the park opens because there aren't enough people, just go straight in), so keep an eye on the App after the park opens, I noticed that by around 9:30 they were all gone. : There is a machine in the park that can draw tickets (I don't recommend this method, so I won't talk much about it haha) Next, let's talk about some regrets and suggested routes: Remember to arrive 1/2 hour before the park opens I highly recommend that you try to draw a ticket to enter the Mario area, there will still be tickets available within 1-2 hours after they start drawing, so don't worry After the park opens, first go for those must-ride attractions like 'The Flying Dinosaur, Forbidden Journey, The Dream Carousel', because these attractions will have about two hours' wait in the afternoon, so I was the one who went to the Mario area in the morning and only got to ride two attractions in the afternoon, haha, otherwise you could ride at least 3-4 attractions in the morning It's a better strategy to go for these must-ride attractions in the morning while keeping an eye on the App for ticket drawing, and then head to the Mario area in the afternoon or at noon.

I recently embarked on an unforgettable adventure at Universal Studios Japan's Mario World, and it was nothing short of extraordinary! As a big fan of the Super Mario franchise, stepping into the vibrant and immersive world of Mario felt like a cherished dream turned into reality. The meticulous attention to detail in Mario World is absolutely awe-inspiring. From the iconic brick blocks to the breathtaking landscapes of the Mushroom Kingdom, every element transported me into the enchanting realm of this beloved video game. The exhilarating rides, intricately designed to bring Mario Kart and Yoshi to life, provided a thrill like no other. Competing with fellow enthusiasts in a race for victory was a heart-pounding experience that left me with lasting memories. The delectable Mario-themed snacks and a treasure trove of merchandise added to the charm of the experience. From mouthwatering treats to delightful keepsakes, Mario World offers a feast for the senses and a chance to bring a piece of the magic home. For all the Mario fans out there and those seeking an immersive and nostalgic adventure, a visit to Mario World at Universal Studios Japan is an absolute must. Prepare to be transported into a whimsical universe and relive the cherished moments of your favorite video game. I, for one, cannot wait to revisit and rediscover the wonders that await in Mario World! #mytripvlog #japan #themepark #usj #osaka #universalstudiosjapan #awesompic

📍Osaka Universal Studios Japan This place was like a fantastic space that made you feel as if you had stepped into a movie. I was immersed in the world of Hollywood movies, enjoying a variety of experiences from the magical world of Harry Potter to the dazzling attractions of Super Mario. Each corner was elaborately decorated like a scene from a movie, and the encounters with the characters will be remembered in my heart for a long time. Especially at night, the lighting was beautifully bright, making the theme park emit an even more fantastical atmosphere. I thought that I would like to experience more attractions and create more memories on my next visit. Osaka Universal Studios was a special journey into the movies.

Universal Studios Japan, here I come again. The last time I came was about 5 years ago. This time not only caught up with the cherry blossom season, but also experienced the Super Nintendo World that I have been dreaming about. It was really a joyful day in USJ. 【About ticket】 We grabbed the express pass 4, which includes Harry Potter Area, Super Nintendo World, JUJUTSU KAISEN 4D, and Spider-Man or Jurassic Park. Choose one attraction for each. 【Must try attractions】 Jurassic Park: The Flying dinosaur is really a must try ride. Thrilling experience will swing you 360 degrees through the world of Jurassic Park. ; Jurassic Park: The Ride. A dinosaur boat tour is threatened by a containment breach! Plunge down a 25.9 meter drop to escape certain death at the jaws of a raging T-Rex! Harry Potter: Forbidden Journey. With ultra-realistic images, you can go beyond reality without 3D glasses. Super Nintendo: Mario Kart. The first interactive Mario Kart theme park of the world. 【About food】 The food in USJ are good too. The must-eat turkey legs can only be found in the Jurassic Park, and the Kinopio’s Cafe in the Nintendo world is worth a try. #themepark #japan #2023travelwish

Located in Osaka, Japan, I had the best day ever at Universal Studios Japan! 🍄 Super Nintendo World was definitely the highlight of my day! Mario Kart: Koopa’s Challenge is one of the most immerse, crazy rides I have ever been on. The whole land is a wild experience and I was literally in shock! Yoshi’s Adventure is a more chill ride that takes you slowly around the land and through his kingdom. 🪄 The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was exciting as always. I love how everyone buys a wand and dresses like they are a student at Hogwarts! My favourite part of this land is Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey attraction. I went in the single rider’s line to avoid the long queues! 🦕 Jurassic Park is a really cool area to explore. Not only does it have the water ride with a huge drop, there is also The Flying Dinosaur. This is a flying rollercoaster and I really enjoyed it! 🏎️ No Limit! Parade might be one of the best parades ever. I’m being serious. The variety of characters is great, but at one point they stop and it turns into a party! Everyone comes into the street and dances together! I loved it! 🎢 Hollywood Dream - The Ride is similar to Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, where you choose a song to listen to while you ride the coaster. But this one has two versions of the ride - one goes backwards! Overall I had the best day at Universal Studios Japan and I can’t wait to go back again! #familytrip #mytravelhacks #localguides #universalstudiosjapan #japan #osaka #japantrip

#travelanywhere Universal Studios Japan (USJ) offers an enchanting experience for Harry Potter fans with its meticulously crafted Hogwarts castle and surrounding attractions. As a fan of the magical world created by J.K. Rowling, visiting Hogwarts at USJ felt like stepping into the pages of the books and scenes from the movies 🧙🏻🧪 The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly Hogwarts Castle itself. The attention to detail, from the towering spires to the intricate stonework, was awe-inspiring. Inside, the corridors lined with moving portraits and the Dumbledore's office were recreated with such authenticity that it felt surreal. The Forbidden Journey ride, which takes you on a thrilling journey through various scenes from the series, was a definite adrenaline rush and a must-try for any visitor.
