About MOOMIN VALLEY PARK

Step into the enchanting world of Tove Jansson’s beloved characters at Moomin Valley Park, the first official Moomin theme park outside of Finland. Nestled in the scenic Metsä Lake area of Saitama, this immersive destination brings the magical stories to life with authentic recreations, interactive exhibits, and charming natural landscapes. It is an absolute must-visit for families, nostalgia seekers, and fans looking to experience the heartwarming spirit of the Moomins.

Local Legends & Stories

While the Moomins originate from Finnish literature, their massive popularity in Japan dates back to the 1969 anime adaptation, which deeply embedded the characters into Japanese pop culture. Moomin Valley Park in Saitama stands as a testament to this decades-long cross-cultural love affair, blending Nordic folklore with Japanese dedication to craftsmanship and hospitality.

Must Do Experiences

  • Explore the meticulously recreated Moominhouse and peek into the iconic rooms where the Moomin family lives.

  • Meet your favourite characters like Moomintroll, Snufkin, and Little My during scheduled live greetings and stage performances.

  • Visit the KOKEMUS exhibition hall to discover original illustrations, historical artifacts, and interactive storytelling displays.

  • Take a relaxing stroll around Metsä Lake and enjoy a Nordic-inspired meal at the Muumilaakso restaurant.

Hidden Gems

  • Seek out the hidden Snufkin tent and the quiet Hemulen's House botanical garden area for a peaceful escape from the main crowds.

  • Look for the subtle, exclusive Japanese-only Moomin merchandise available exclusively at the Muumilaakso shop that you cannot find anywhere else in the world.

  • Visit the Lighthouse at the edge of the lake during the late afternoon for a stunning, less-crowded vantage point of the entire park.

What Makes it Special

  • It is the only official Moomin theme park outside of Finland, offering an authentic and meticulously crafted experience approved by Moomin Characters Ltd.

  • The park seamlessly blends Nordic storytelling with the beautiful natural surroundings of Saitama's Metsä Lake, creating a uniquely tranquil theme park atmosphere.

  • It features exclusive interactive attractions like the adventure-filled Lighthouse and the magical Emma's Theatre, which go beyond standard amusement rides to focus on immersive storytelling.

Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

The best time to visit is on a weekday morning right when the park opens to avoid the weekend crowds and secure good spots for character photos. Spring and autumn offer the most pleasant weather and stunning seasonal foliage around Metsä Lake, while winter brings beautiful illumination events. Summer can be quite hot and humid, so early morning visits and utilizing the shaded forest trails are highly recommended during those months.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

  • Capture the iconic Moominhouse from the bridge near the entrance during the soft morning light for the best architectural shots without heavy shadows.

  • Use the natural framing of the pine trees around Metsä Lake to take beautiful, candid photos of the characters during their outdoor greetings.

  • Remember that photography is strictly prohibited inside the KOKEMUS exhibition hall and during certain indoor theatre performances to protect the original artwork and respect the performers.

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

Japanese theme park etiquette emphasizes patience and respect, so please form orderly queues for attractions and character greetings without cutting in line. It is customary to bow slightly or wave politely when greeting the characters, and visitors should refrain from touching the performers' costumes. Tipping is not practiced in Japan, so simply express your gratitude to the friendly staff with a polite thank you or arigatou gozaimasu.

Special Events & Experiences

Enhanced experiences and seasonal highlights

  • Experience the magical Winter Illumination where the park and Metsä Lake are lit up with thousands of lights and special night-time character parades.

  • Join the festive Moomin Midsummer celebrations in June, featuring special floral decorations, limited-edition summer merchandise, and exclusive stage shows.

  • Enjoy the Autumn Harvest events that showcase seasonal Nordic-Japanese culinary specials and beautiful fall foliage framing the Moominhouse.

Important Guidelines & Safety

Essential safety information and guidelines

  • Keep a close eye on young children near the Metsä Lake waterfront areas and on the elevated walkways of the adventure attractions.

  • Stay on the marked paths and wooden boardwalks to protect the natural flora and prevent slipping on uneven forest terrain.

  • Utilize the park's first aid station and baby care rooms if you or your little ones need a quick rest, medical assistance, or a quiet space to cool down.

Visitor Information

Entry Fee

The 1-Day Pass grants full access to the park's main attractions, exhibitions, and shows, with discounted rates available for children and seniors. For those wanting to explore the adjacent Metsä Village shopping and dining area, no separate ticket is required, though special combo tickets with nearby partner attractions are occasionally offered.

Visit Duration

Plan to spend at least four to five hours to fully enjoy the exhibitions, watch a live show, and have a relaxed meal without feeling rushed. If you are short on time, prioritize the Moominhouse, the KOKEMUS exhibition, and one character greeting, as these are the core highlights of the park.

Accessibility

Moomin Valley Park is highly accessible, featuring paved pathways, ramps, and elevators to accommodate wheelchairs and strollers throughout most of the main areas. Accessible restrooms and dedicated viewing spaces for live performances are also available to ensure a comfortable experience for all guests.

MOOMIN VALLEY PARKThis is a very important attraction in Hanno. Step into the Nordic wonderland deep in Saitama Forest, where Moomin Valley outlines a fairy-tale dimension with its rounded curves. The Moomin House stands among white birch trees, its cloud-like blue roof wafting the aroma of cinnamon rolls. Push open the round wooden door to find fluffy Moomintroll reading letters by the fireplace. Follow the wooden boardwalk to the Elf Theater, where life-sized Little My and Snufkin perform shadow puppet shows, with Finnish nursery rhymes blending surprisingly harmoniously with Japanese subtitles. Children can crawl into the treehouse-shaped picture book gallery and touch glowing 3D pages in the acrylic "Firefly Forest." Don't forget to grab a cup of lingonberry juice at Moominmamma's Kitchen while watching the changing seasons through the floor-to-ceiling windows—wild berries dotting mossy grounds in spring, maple-red hues soaking the valley in fall, and the rustling of pine needles as if an invisible hand were gently turning the parchment pages of a fairy-tale book.
