One of the best things about making a visit to Japan is going to the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo. It’s truly a magical place for fans of Hayao Miyazaki’s films, where you can see a life-sized nekobus and Laputa robot, see and touch the desk and reference materials Miyazaki-sensei used when creating his films, peer through stained-glass windows with images of his characters, and more. There’s also a theater where you get to see an original short Ghibli film, and a gift shop filled with wonderful Ghibli products to browse. There’s one problem, however: tickets for the museum must be purchased in advance, and it’s difficult to obtain them from outside Japan. So as part of our “Why Don’t You Consider a Trip to Japan Sometime in the Near Future?” campaign — since people here could really use the tourist dollars right now — we’ve started a service allowing you reserve Ghibli Museum tickets through us. So please keep this service in mind if find yourself planning a trip to Japan in the future. In the meantime, we’ve always got stock of outstanding Totoro and Ghibli items — click to see some of them now.
Plan a trip to Japan and visit the Ghibli Museum! It’s the Holy Land for Miyazaki fans.
