Sanrio Character Theme Park in Anji, Hangzhou, China

【Amazing Experience】
You can meet many Sanrio characters such as Hello Kitty, Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin, and My Melody. The show schedule differs between Saturdays and other days, with Saturdays offering a more extravagant lineup. If you plan to stay for multiple days, it is recommended to include a Saturday in your visit.

【Operating Hours】
The park is open from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with extended evening hours during summer. It often opens earlier than the official 10:00 AM start time, and characters greet visitors at the entrance. Since the characters appearing are random, you may need to visit multiple days to meet your favorite ones.

【Attractions】
Some attractions may be closed due to maintenance or other reasons. The Ferris wheel has two types of gondolas: fixed ones and non-fixed ones that sway significantly. Lines are separated, allowing you to choose based on your preference.

【Parade】
There is one parade per day. After the floats leave, performers return for a special appearance. It’s recommended to wait near the parade’s endpoint to catch this unique moment.

【Access】
The park is about a 5-minute taxi ride from Anji Passenger Transport Center. While there are local buses, their schedules are unclear, and they are less commonly used.

To reach Anji Passenger Transport Center, you can take express buses from bus terminals in Shanghai or Hangzhou. The nearest high-speed railway stations are Huzhou Station or Hangzhou West Station, both approximately 50 kilometers away. Although the newly opened Anji Station is closer at about 30 kilometers, its limited service makes it less convenient.

In China, DiDi (ride-hailing service) is very affordable, costing around 4,000 yen for a 50-kilometer ride. Using a taxi can be a practical option to save time and energy.
