Uzumasa Kyoto Village
Last updated: September 13, 2026
Uzumasa Kyoto Village — the renewed Toei Kyoto Studio Park — is a working film-set town where Edo-period Kyoto carries on around you. Wander streets built by the studio's own art team, watch samurai and ninja performances, and trade greetings with costumed townsfolk going about their day. Dress in movie costumes yourself, catch traditional drum and shamisen performances drawn from Ōoku court life, and linger after dark, when the lantern-lit streets take on the glow of a period drama.
