“A full-scale ninja kingdom featuring a stunning reconstruction of Azuchi Castle and immersive ninja experiences for all ages.”
Ninja Kingdom Ise, officially called Tomoiki no Kuni Ise Ninja Kingdom, is a historical and cultural theme park located in Ise City, Mie Prefecture, Japan. Inspired by the Azuchi–Momoyama (Sengoku) Period, the park recreates an ancient “Castle Town” (Jokamachi) centered around a magnificent replica of Azuchi Castle, allowing visitors to step back in time and experience the world of samurai and ninja.
Guests can rent ninja or kimono costumes and participate in various activities, including shuriken (throwing star) practice, archery, and the exciting Ninja Forest Adventure with zip lines and obstacle courses. The park also features live ninja shows that combine thrilling action, comedy, and touching stories suitable for all ages.
Inside the park, you’ll find a museum displaying authentic samurai swords and historical artifacts, along with traditional-style restaurants and shops that recreate the atmosphere of old Japan. For relaxation, visitors can enjoy the Ise Natural Hot Spring “Azuchi Castle Hot Spring,” open until evening — the perfect way to unwind after an adventurous day.
