Huis Ten Bosch

1 of 6 in Sasebo

Huis Ten Bosch (ハウステンボス), is a unique theme park that faithfully recreates the ambiance of a traditional Dutch town. Inspired by a palace of the Dutch Royal Family, the park features scenic canals, iconic windmills, flower-filled gardens, and elegant European-style architecture. Seasonal events, such as the vibrant tulip festival in spring and spectacular fireworks competitions in summer, enhance the experience. Visitors can enjoy canal cruises, rent bicycles to explore the expansive grounds, or relax with a meal at one of the many restaurants serving European and Japanese cuisine. The park also transforms into a winter wonderland with illumination displays during the colder months.

The resort is divided into two main areas: the Theme Park Zone, which requires admission and offers numerous attractions, and the Harbor Zone, which is free to enter and includes picturesque outdoor areas. The Theme Park Zone features a wide range of activities, including 3D and VR theaters, a haunted house, amusement rides, and a replica of Utrecht’s Domtoren tower offering panoramic views. In the Harbor Zone, you’ll find Palace Huis Ten Bosch, a grand European-style palace housing art exhibitions. For an immersive stay, the resort includes several European-themed hotels such as Hotel Europe and Hotel Amsterdam, which offer exclusive perks like priority park access and discounted admission.
