    Amazing attractions despite being completely crowded. Go with express pass if you can to save you time in the lines. Get the ticket as soon as possible because attractions in Japan may be sold out before you even try to buy. Universal Studios totally worth it!

    About the rides

    Universal Studios Japan features 10 distinct areas: Super Nintendo World™, THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER™, Minion Park, Universal Wonderland, Hollywood, New York, San Francisco, Jurassic Park, Amity Village, and WaterWorld. Some of the most popular rides include:

    The Flying Dinosaur: The world's longest flying coaster. Ride face-down like a pterodactyl, starting with a 37-meter drop followed by twists and turns.

    Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™: A robotic arm moves you around massive screens, creating the illusion of flying through Hogwarts. Encounter magical creatures and face Dementors.

    Flight of the Hippogriff™: Another Harry Potter ride. It's a smaller coaster that goes past Hagrid's place and around some pumpkins. Good for kids or if you're not into big coasters.

    Mario Kart: A must for Nintendo fans. Wear 3D goggles to feel like you're in the game, throwing shells at other racers.

    Hollywood Dream: A coaster where you choose your own music. Also available in a backward-riding version.

    Yoshi's Adventure: Join Yoshi on a whimsical journey through colorful landscapes in this family-friendly ride filled with fun surprises!

    Detective Conan 4-D Live Show: Jewel Under the Starry Sky: Immerse yourself in a thrilling mystery as you join Detective Conan in a 4-D adventure filled with action, suspense, and special effects.

    JAWS™: Experience the ultimate shark showdown on this intense boat ride as you come face-to-face with the iconic Great White shark from the classic film.
