When talking about amusement parks in Japan, the first to come in mind is usually Disneyland in Tokyo or Universal Studio in Osaka. However if you are a true fan of amusement parks, you should pay Fuji Q Highland a visit as it is not only the largest amusement park in Japan, but is also home to more than one Guinness World Record breaking roller coasters. Where is it?Fuji Q higland is located at Fuji Five Lake region right at the foot of Mount Fuji. How to Go?You can visit Fuji Q Highland by alighting at Fujikyu-Highland Station along the Fujikyu Railway. If you are coming from Kawaguchiko Station like me during my Autumn Family Japan Trip (07112018 - 14112018), there is actually a free shuttle bus service that you can take to the amusement park. Wait at bus stop No 4 at Kawaguchiko Station. Visit Fujikyu Group for more information about the shuttle bus. Why Visit?1. Admission to the amusement park is free !!! Yes free !!! Does this activate your Singaporean Instinct? You only need to pay separately for each rides or you can get the day pass for unlimited rides. Remember to collect your admission tickets from the counter even if you are not intending to play any rides. 2. If you are thrill seekers whom like riding roller coasters, you will be excited to know that Fuji Q Highland does not have just 1 but 4 Guinness World Record breaking roller coasters. Yes 4 !!! Fujiyama - World's Tallest and Fastest roller coaster when it launched in 1996 Dodonpa - Holds the world record for fastest acceleration (accelerates from 0 to 180 km/hr in 1.56s) Eejanaika - A roller coaster where its seat can turn round and round, front and back, it is given the world record for most number of revolutions at the time of opening. Takabisha - The steepest roller coaster with a drop at 121 degrees. 3. Roller coasters are not the only attraction to make you scream. Welcome to the Super Scary Labyrinth of Fear, a haunted house attraction set inside an abandon hospital. It is side to be one of the longest haunted house in the world with a total length of about 900 meters. 4.
