Not
going
to
lie,
this
park
could
use
more
than
just
a
few
coats
of
paint,
but
Greenland
is
the
best
theme
park
in
Kyushu.
You'll
need
a
full
day
to
experience
the
park,
though
it's
unlikely
that
you'll
get
through
everything
in
one
day.
There
is
no
rhyme
or
reason
to
the
different
parts
of
the
park,
and
nothing
really
seems
to
match.
However,
that's
a
part
of
its
charm.
From
modern
steel
rollercoasters
to
traditional
haunted
house
train
rides,
there
is
something
for
all
ages
and
tastes
here.
Some
attractions
will
make
you
laugh
at
their
odd
or
worn
down
state
(like
the
jungle
area),
while
others
while
linger
with
you
long
after
you
leave
the
park
(what
exactly
is
in
the
log
flume
tunnel??).
You
won't
need
to
know
much
Japanese
to
get
around,
but
some
attractions,
like
the
Egyptian
themed
Mystic
House
or
the
Mission
Control
Riddle
House,
require
a
knowledge
of
Japanese
language
and
idioms
to
enjoy
the
full
experience
(or
have
someone
who
can
translate
for
the
rest
of
the
group!).
I'd
personally
recommend
the
'double
feature'
theater
house,
which
has
on
one
side
the
'4D'
Crimson
Butterfly
short
film
(or
it
was
last
time
I
was
there)
and
the
audio-only
Dracula
simulator
(it
is
so
well
done
and
creepy,
the
language
barrier
does
nothing
to
detract
from
the
experience).
Also,
there
are
three
haunted
attractions
at
the
park:
the
Haunted
Hospital,
the
Haunted
Train
Ride,
and
the
Haunted
School.
The
hospital
was
apparently
once
truly
scary
but
it
has
been
revamped
to
be
kid-friendly,
though
you
can
see
some
elements
from
the
original
design
still
inside.
The
train
ride
includes
headphones
that
will
narrate
a
very
unfortunate
adventure
that
I
did
not
keep
my
eyes
open
for
(but
apparently
very
scary).
The
school
is
on
top
of
a
hill
that
requires
a
ski
lift
to
reach
(and
you'll
have
to
toboggan
down
to
get
back
to
the
main
area
of
the
park
unless
you
ask
very
nicely
to
take
the
ski
lift
again).
It
is
several
stories
tall
and
you'll
have
a
lot
of
stairs
to
walk
to
enjoy
(or
not
enjoy)
the
full
adventure.
There's
a
test
at
the
end
that
you'll
hopefully
pass!
Bring
your
walking
shoes,
you'll
be
going
up
and
down
hills
trying
to
get
everywhere.
Accessibility
can
be
a
bit
limited,
a
little
common
in
Japan,
so
if
you
have
a
stroller
or
wheelchair
be
prepared
to
backtrack
to
get
to
everywhere
you
want
to
go.
I'd
also
suggest
bringing
your
own
snacks,
since
there's
a
perfectly
good
convenience
store
across
the
street,
or
just
ordering
at
the
in-park
McDonalds.
Some
of
the
in-park
food
places
are
a
bit
spotty,
though
the
ice
cream,
fries,
and
drinks
are
usually
fine.
It
doesn't
have
the
glitz,
glam,
or
atmosphere
that
you'll
get
from
USJ
or
the
Tokyo
Disney
parks,
but
if
you're
in
Kyushu
it's
a
good
bet
for
a
fun
time.
