Nice blue hair very unique

[@cakeswithfaces]

Thanks! I like being colourful :-)

[@winterkarasu7560]

..nice, almost psychedelic like stepping inside a kaleidoscope world..13:02 that boat looks like a spaceship..your fast swimming turtle is a punk with it's blue Mohawk..can't wait for the Hokkaido videos..

[@cakeswithfaces]

I wanted to make my turtle more funky! It really was amazing - and more fun than I expected!

[@winterkarasu7560]

@@cakeswithfaces ..your turtle was already funky.. :-)..nice place to visit..

[@garys5540]

I always find your vlogs very interesting and very entertaining. thanks so much for your work!!

[@cakeswithfaces]

Thanks! They take me ages to edit so it makes it worth it to know you enjoy them!

[@helenFX]

The scanned turtle - what a lovely picture but could you imagine such an installation in britain if the images weren't vetted before being added ? oh dear :) I think that umbrella lockers would probaly work just to prevent people from accidentally taking another similar looking one.

[@cakeswithfaces]

There are a lot of things in Japan that wouldn't work in Britain probably! :-) Yes, everyone has those clear umbrellas from the convenience store like I had (I actually love them because they let the light through so they're less gloomy than black umbrellas!)

[@JToTheAde]

I’ve never been a massive fan of museums, but this museum seems right up my street. I could spent a whole day in there easily🤩

[@cakeswithfaces]

Yes it's not really a museum is it? :-) You might also like the Ramen Museum (just a load of ramen restaurants!)

[@あいうえお-o6s1f]

Wow ! Your turtle is swimming ! So cute ! You had a unique experience . But, that is just expensive . Please have fun more !

[@cakeswithfaces]

It's definitely unique! I don't know anywhere else like this! :-)

So glad you enjoy them! :-)

[@yvettenino1780]

I really enjoyed watching this video. The museum is amazing! Everything was so cool and cute. Thank you for sharing this experience with us!!!

[@cakeswithfaces]

It was amazing in so many ways! So glad I can show you all these things :-)

[@Cazzyfaller]

We were there last Thursday! Really magical experience and the crystal world was my favorite too. Would recommend a visit but it can be tricky navigating between rooms and knowing which ones you have been in! Now returned from our 3 1/2 wk trip and just loved Japan! X

[@cakeswithfaces]

Fantastic! You must have seen a lot in 3.5 weeks - what were your favs? :-)

[@carolinefaller273]

Cakes with Faces we certainly did! Umm favs....loved the buzz and fun of Dotombori in Osaka. Food wise Okonomiyaki was scrummy and a great dining experience. Most surprising place was Hiroshima. Was expecting it to be dark and bleak but was so much the opposite. The Peace Park was so tranquil and such a beautiful setting. Just ambling amongst the memorials and hearing people’s stories was amazing and thought provoking. Would urge others to go. Loved feeding the naughty deer at Nara! Also loved the country areas of Nikko and Hakone.....lovely being surrounded by lush tree covered mountains. We even had a wild monkey run out in front of our car......couldn’t believe our eyes! In general the people are so friendly and helpful and its so clean and efficient. I could go on..........Amy do you live there or just visit regularly?

[@haf816r]

This is the best video I've seen of boardeeless. You're great at sharing the experience--- you mentioned you were unsure but I was thinking the exact opposite.

[@cakeswithfaces]

Aww thanks so much! I really loved it there - so immersive and such a different experience that anyone can enjoy. :-)

[@jwrappuhn71]

Great vid Amy, that place looks fantastic, the water part would be pretty cool.

[@cakeswithfaces]

It'd be really different! If I can manage to go back before Planets finishes I'd like to visit that one too!

[@comiccaperproductions]

Woah. Crazy place right? One of the best parts of my trip to Tokyo and a last minute addition. Loved the lights raining down (don't know what to call it). So cinematic

[@cakeswithfaces]

Can't believe that room was such a simple idea but so effective! It's amazing isn't it! :-)

[@comiccaperproductions]

@@cakeswithfaces From behind the curtains It felt like silhouettes in rain. Epic

[@cakeswithfaces]

@@comiccaperproductions Yes! A magical type of rain (with the sound effects too!)

Looks like you had a great time 😀🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@cakeswithfaces]

It was amazing, I loved it! :-)

[@kellybeaumont3183]

So amazing. Wish i had gone in march but didnt know it was there. Definitely on to do list next time in tokyo. So excited to see Hokkaido. Cant wait til Thursday 😀😀😀

[@cakeswithfaces]

Always the way! My to-do list for next time starts virtually straight away when I get back and start finding out about more interesting places!

[@ThatBrunetteYouTube]

You look other-worldly with the blue lights!

[@cakeswithfaces]

Haha it's like being on another planet! :-)

[@KplusJinJapan]

This place has been at the top of our must-do list for awhile. I can't wait to see it in person! (5 more months. *sigh) It looks magical. Crystal World, the cafe tea room, and the room with the lanterns are the ones I most want to see. Was the cafe hard to find? It seems like most people miss it or don't show it in their videos.

[@cakeswithfaces]

The cafe is upstairs - Phil's not a tea fan so we weren't on the look-out for it. I think downstairs is more of a maze than upstairs, but then I missed the lantern room and that's upstairs. So just explore everywhere!

[@NeonPlusNova]

Wow this vlog was amazing! This all looks like so much fun! All the colors and the immersion seemed like a blast! Great video! Cheers, Dustin + Meghan

[@cakeswithfaces]

It really was an amazing experience - really different from anywhere else! I'd definitely recommend going if you can! :-)

[@dusk1234567890]

That place was awesome and totally recommended it. When I went there the line was long but the queue moved quickly. I think I got in within 30 minutes. Only problem was google maps didn’t know where it was and took me to the back of the centre. Honestly though, Odaiba itself was great.

[@cakeswithfaces]

I've heard Odaiba's a love it or hate it sort of place, because it doesn't feel like the rest of Tokyo. But there are lots of interesting things to do, and the seaside park's so lovely when it's sunny.

[@TechHeadHD2]

That looks awesome! I'm so putting this on my to-visit list for when i get the chance to go to Japan.

[@cakeswithfaces]

You won't be disappointed! :-)

[@WolfyLuna]

I was on that island during my visit in Japan this year's April yet I was unaware they had that there. Pitty though I think I would have liked it myself as well. Thanks for sharing :)

[@cakeswithfaces]

It's so easy to miss things - I usually discover something the day I get back home (and then start making my list for next time!!)

[@194DAG]

Great video. I went here without booking in advance and was was told to come back in 5 hours. Unfortunately I had other plans so could not go back. Looks a great place.

[@cakeswithfaces]

It's so popular! It can be difficult to plan in advance when you're on holiday but things do seem to get busy in Japan when they're new and everyone wants to go!

[@Thavleifrim]

I saw a video of this place a while ago, its definitely high on the list of places id like to visit

[@cakeswithfaces]

I'd definitely recommend it!! :-)

[@JojoKey]

Going today 🤗🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Hey Amy awesomeadam vlog keep it up

[@cakeswithfaces]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! :-)

[@awesomeadamfrom2099]

Yeah I did.

[@inessilva7779]

So how do I get tickets in advance? Can I go to the museum and buy a ticket for the next day or are there other places where you can get tickets? It looks so beautiful 😍

[@cakeswithfaces]

You can book them on the Teamlab Borderless website! It's in English - I booked them the day before on my phone (but that was in the off-season so might be safer to book earlier if you're going at a busy time).

[@inessilva7779]

@@cakeswithfaces thank you so much for the quick reply 😉 I just checked the website and tickets can be purchased 2 months in advance which is great! Love your channel by the way, keep showing us your adventures through Japan xx

[@cakeswithfaces]

Thanks so much, so glad you're enjoying them! You'll love the Digital Art Museum! :-)

[@reinaxmoonlitrose5623]

I'll be going to this later this year :p and also the other one they have, planets, very excited~

[@cakeswithfaces]

You'll have to let me know which you enjoyed most! :-)

[@erwindewit4073]

Wow! That looks absolutely fantastic!! I’d really really like to go there!! It already looked great in the video, which was great by the way! Still, could have done with a bit more bee-cats in it 😂

[@cakeswithfaces]

A few bee-cats wandering around with those creatures on the walls maybe! :-)

[@erwindewit4073]

Cakes with Faces Yes precisely! I did like the turtle, but some bee-cats would have lit up the wall for sure 😂 Especially with some llamas and apalcas 😀 But most of all, I was really impressed and would really like to see it now!

[@cakeswithfaces]

@@erwindewit4073 They'd need a snorkel if they were in that aquarium! 😝

[@evanbutler9813]

I absolutely love your videos and have been following you for 2 years your content is awesome but I would recommend an into and mabye some music throughout to get more people into this awesome content

[@cakeswithfaces]

Thanks for following, I really do appreciate it! :-)

[@79other]

Thanks you. I want to go here on my next trip and you answered a few of my questions. What is your tip to see some of the best rooms (like that room you missed)?

[@cakeswithfaces]

There aren't any maps so you just need to really explore, go through all the doorways and curtains and walk around everywhere! I didn't look at the website before I went (I didn't want spoilers!) so I didn't realise there were rooms I hadn't found. So if you did, you'd know if you'd seen everything or not! The room with the lanterns (like in Tangled - wish I'd seen that one!) is upstairs, not sure how I missed that one exactly. Hope you enjoy it!

[@JP_world_traveller]

I was there with my Kiwi female mate who has been living in Tokyo for more than 11years new years day this year whilst I stayed in Tokyo from the Kansai region,Japan (^-^)

[@cakeswithfaces]

Must have been good to visit with someone local who could show you all the best places! :-)

[@hannamills1985]

This is awesome

[@cakeswithfaces]

It really was amazing!

[@oscarpaiz79]

Other place to my list 😁😁🤩 how much time do you spend there? I'm planning to go to the onsen..then the museum of technology and then this...do you think is gonna be enough time?

[@cakeswithfaces]

I spent 3.5 hours there - and you could easily spend longer! You could definitely do two of those - whether you can do all three depends how much energy you have! I saw a video recently of someone visiting the onsen in the evening and it looked magical with lights on in the footbath garden when it's dark. I really enjoyed Miraikan (the science museum) - I went there before I started making videos! The best part is seeing Asimo the Honda robot.

[@oscarpaiz79]

@@cakeswithfaces The thing is I noticed that the onsen is like a team park-ish hahaha or a place for families and couples and..well I'm doing a solo travel this time so don't have a girlfriend at this moment to fully enjoy it..I think I will spend my time in TeamLabs and the tech museum. Anyway, I will have plenty of chances to visit an Onsen (remember that I'll visit the Dogo one... :) )

[@cakeswithfaces]

@@oscarpaiz79 It's definitely not a traditional, authentic onsen! You'll definitely enjoy TeamLabs and Miraikan!

[@oscarpaiz79]

@@cakeswithfaces sure I will...😎

[@jenachristian]

I went there last week and yes, it was amazing. Some of the parts I already knew from Singapore. I hope you did not miss the room with the lamps (because it was not a part of your video). The only minor issue I had there was that they did not provide a map were the different rooms / instalations are.

[@cakeswithfaces]

Yes that's what we missed - the room with the lamps! 😭 It looks amazing, like Tangled! :-) A map would make it easier to see everything, but I can see why they want you to have a sense of exploration, and experience the moment rather than looking at a map!

[@nargasmith6969]

How long were you there for?

[@cakeswithfaces]

3.5 hours - but you could easily spend longer (we missed a couple of rooms without realising). There's a lot to see! :-)

[@nargasmith6969]

Cakes with Faces thanks! That helps with my planing ✨

[@tinsley7850]

Does anyone know if the one with the water contains chlorine? I'd love to go but I'm allergic to the stuff.

[@leirem0]

We went to TeamLab planets in March and I am 90% sure it was (or at least smelt) chlorinated - I think it has to be for hygiene reasons but worth checking.

[@cakeswithfaces]

It doesn't say on the website; could be worth getting in touch with them to ask. I'm guessing they must use something in the water for hygiene. Maybe someone who's been could comment on whether it smells of chlorine?

[@tinsley7850]

Thank you! I have checked the website previously but hit a brick wall. I said to my other half it must have either chlorine or fluorine in (I'm fine with fluorine), but then he pointed out that onsen water doesn't contain either & that threw me a bit of a curve ball!

[@cakeswithfaces]

@@tinsley7850 Yes I've always wondered about onsen water and hygiene...! :-) I'd try emailing them to ask as your best bet.

[@雌わ雄]

Planets is 10x cooler. I dont think you are allowed to upload this footage if the video is monetized. I would email them. The staff told me "footage is for personal use only"

[@cakeswithfaces]

Hopefully I'll be able to go back before Planets ends!
