Tokyo Dome City

Tokyo Dome City is an amusement park located at Kourakuen(後楽園), there is also a stadium where singers and bands would hold their concerts in, including my favorite boy band Tohoshinki(東方神起). The stadium has a nickname being called as the "Big Egg" due to it's dome shape appearance.

Besides, there is another building which houses spa relaxation services, fitness centers and shopping malls, the renowned LaQua. At times, people who are weary of their tight schedule may make a visit here to de-stress while at the same time experience the exciting theme park games such as Thunder Dolphin.

Thunder Dolphin is the ultimate roller coaster that one must experience at least once in his life. The cost of playing is set at 1000yen, very expensive yet the excitement was the best amongst those that I've tried so far.

The unbelievable speed passing through the large wheel and the unpredictable route that the roller coaster would bend into were the climax of all. Even if I grabbed the post so tightly, and that my eyes could hardly open, I felt that my heart flew out the second it bent abruptly into an almost 90 degree route. My cheek was all numb too after the ride.

When the sky turned dark, all the decos would be lightened up. Don't be surprised by the effects of how these lights would transform the atmosphere into a lovely and romantic one. The colors, the designs, the ambiance of that place were totally like any drama that you would imagine yourself in. Therefore, this place is highly recommended to couples too! Couples can ride on the BIG O wheels and enjoy each other companies while admiring the night view of Tokyo.




Behold! The scary bends of Thunder Dolphin!



As stated, the length of Thunder Dolphin was 1100m! It took less than 2 minutes to complete a cycle of Thunder Dolphin. (1000yen gone!)



LaQua, where one can enjoy the combination of spa, gym and shopping.



Hora! Don't you think this created a Kaleidoscope effect?!




2 big snow spheres hanging at the entrance of LaQua.



Another eye catching deco, the multiple dimensions star.



Japan is always best known for their quirkiness and creativity. The nude pair of toothbrush was interestingxD
