14:09 - Alternate Universe Disneyland http://www.themeparkreview.com/japan2004/nara1.htm	(top)
Just like the real thing, except abandoned and shabby. Are you sure this is in Japan, and not North Korea...?

It looks like the abandoned park the family stumbles onto in "Spirited Away"

Euro-Wally World?

Massive inappropriate pork-barrel projects are everywhere in Japan, thanks to policies that make Ted Stevens look like an amateur. In most towns, it's an oversized museum, conference center, paved riverbeds, or roads to nowhere, but this place fits right in.

Who in their right mind would think that the way to attract tourists to Japan's ancient capital is a third-rate generic amusement park?

Everything from N. Korea looks like something out of "The Twilight Zone." You just know there are grinning mannikens hiding in the shadows, waiting to pick off your party one by one and replace them with smiling duplicates. Maybe the NK's based the whole park on early Bradbury.
