Tokyo Disney Sea Japan
Tokyo Disney Sea (Japanese: 東京ディズニーシー, English: Tokyo Disney Sea) is a project that first emerged as an extension of Tokyo Disneyland Resort. Located in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, it opened on September 4, 2001, within the area known as Tokyo Disney Resort. The main theme of the area revolves around water, featuring places like Venice, streams, the sea, the Titanic ship, underwater caves in volcanic craters, a city in the Central American rainforest, mermaids, and an underwater city.

DisneySea, a Halloween-filled place you must visit when you go to Tokyo 💗
#JapanTravel #TokyoTravel #DisneySea
Tokyo DisneySea in October, full of Halloween spirit 🫶🏻
The cute Mickey Minnie and pumpkins were a perfect match.
The rides were fun, but there were many things to see everywhere, so it was even more fun
Disney is a dreamlike fantasy even for adults 💗
I recommend going there for at least one day during your trip to Tokyo.
💗 Tokyo DisneySea
📌 1-13 Maihama, Urayasu, Chiba 279-8511 Japan
🚌 You can visit by train or bus
🎟️ Adults 80,000 won ~ early 100,000 won, prices vary depending on the season
▪️ It is essential to install the mobile Tokyo Disney Resort app in advance! You can reserve and ride DisneySea attractions. ▪️ Only those who have reservations for attractions in the area can enter Fantasyland
▪️ Even if all the morning attraction reservations are sold out, you can still make reservations in the afternoon with a ticket🔥
The number one attraction at DisneySea is Soaring! It was really fun.
There are Frozen, Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, and Rapunzel in Fantasyland, but Rapunzel and Frozen are the most popular attractions.
It's prettier at night than during the day, so if you're tired, I recommend taking a rest and seeing the night view of DisneySea and the Sea of Dreams parade😍
