Fans of 'My Neighbor Totoro,' 'Kiki's Delivery Service' and other films from director Hayao Miyazaki of the legendary Studio Ghibli will have a new destination to add to their travel bucket list: Ghibli Park, a theme park opening in November in Japan
The Valley of Witches area that will include recreatons from "Howl's Moving Castle" and "Kiki's Delivery Service."But even follow-up questions to the studio from CNN about Ghibli Park required translations to the studio's press staff, and produced less details than we'd want. We're as hungry for news as the No Face ghost in"Spirited Away.", less than two hours from Kyoto by train. The theme park will be about 17.5 acres when completed.
When it opens in November, three of the five planned areas will be ready. The main one is Ghibli's Grand Warehouse, an indoor facility that will house artifacts and exhibits from films including the Robot Soldier from"Castle in the Sky," the Cat Bus from"Totoro," and another recreation out of the"The Secret World of Arrietty."Studio Ghibli
