On our most recent visit to Japan, we visited the Studio Ghibli Museum in the town of Mitaka. There aren’t any cameras allowed inside the museum and that’s completely understandable, so you’ll just have to take our word that a visit to the museum is a must and well worth the trip. I managed to do a little street photography while touring the town and found this joyous face.
We are tremendous fans of the films of Miyazaki and the museum pays tribute to both the spirit and playfulness of his films while offering a rich interactive experience. I had a great time playing inside a life sized Neko bus from “My Neighbor Totoro.” My favorite Miyazaki film is “Nausicaa Valley of the Wind.”
