Ghibli Museum
Ghibli Museum is a museum featuring the Japanese anime work of Studio Ghibli,
and is located in Inokashira Park in Mitaka, a western suburb of Tokyo, Japan.
The museum is a fine arts museum, but does not take the concept of a usual fine arts museum.
With many features that are child-oriented and a sprawling and occasionally mazelike interior,
the museum is a playfully created place.
