Small Worlds

Small Worlds is a miniatures museum in Tokyo's Ariake district that opened in 2020 and covers around 7,000 square metres, making it the largest miniatures museum in Asia. The museum houses several themed installations, including a space centre, a global village, Kansai International Airport, and areas based on the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion and Sailor Moon. Visitors can press buttons that trigger events within the miniature landscapes and watch moving parts and day-night cycles. The museum also offers model-making workshops, the chance to be 3D-scanned to create a miniature figure of yourself, and a creative studio where artisans and engineers can be seen working on the museum's pieces.
