Part of the Tokyo Dome
complex, the best rides at this large, central amusement
park are those in the LaQua section, where the highlight is
Thunder Dolphin, a high-speed roller coaster guaranteed to
get you screaming (for ages 8 and older). If you haven't got
the stomach for that, try the Big O, the world's first hub-less
and spoke-less Ferris wheel (it's spun by the two supports
below), which provides a gentler ride and plenty of time
to take a photo of the passing view. Tiny tots will enjoy
Toys Kingdom, a space packed with playthings.
