Nijigen no Mori anime tourism development

Overview

Nijigen no Mori, an anime park on Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture, has expanded its themed offerings and received government support to bolster cultural tourism.

In August 2026, the park’s luxury villa, GRAND CHARIOT Hokuto Shichisei 135°, launched an immersive accommodation package based on the ‘Attack on Titan’ series. This plan includes access to a night forest walk featuring projection mapping and sound effects, as well as mystery quests.

By September 2026, the park was selected for the Agency for Cultural Affairs’ ‘FY2026 Japan Expo’ subsidy program. The initiative, titled ‘Creation of a Cultural Tourism Model Utilizing Anime and Game IP for Inbound Tourism,’ aims to leverage the park’s various intellectual properties—including Dragon Quest, Godzilla, and Naruto—to increase international visitor numbers and support regional revitalization.
