Japan people who like to go out will introduce you to the Museum of Aeronautical Science, which is very popular with Japan people who can go in a short time from Narita Airport.This aviation museum is a great tourist attraction for both adults and children to enjoy all day long, even though the admission fee is low!This time, we will introduce you to the great charms of such aviation museums. I hope it will be helpful for your wonderful trip!
The powerful “Boeing 747” actually works!
When you enter the building through the reception desk, there is a Boeing 747 in the center!It’s one-eighth the size of an actual airliner, but it’s about 9 meters long.Here, projection mapping is regularly projected on the floor, making you feel as if you are really on an airplane.
The start time of this projection mapping is not listed anywhere on the official website, but it seems to be projected once an hour.By the way, when I visited the museum several times and saw the projection mapping, it seems that the projection starts around 25 minutes every hour.

| Junior high and high school students | ￥３００ |
| 4 years old or older | ￥２００ |
Let’s take a flight to commemorate the occasion!
Now that you’ve come to the Aviation Museum, this piloting experience is what you want to experience. It’s so cool! Please be assured that you will be taught how to fly carefully.When you actually steer it, you will feel that the steering wheel and lever are surprisingly heavy …! I was nervous from beginning to end until the end of the maneuvering, but I felt that it was a very good experience.When you visit the Aviation Museum, be sure to experience flying!
The piloting experience has raised the price from 2024 …
The DC-8 flight experience, which used to be 100 yen, has been raised from 100 yen for 1 seat to 700 yen for 2 seats, and 400 yen for 2 seats.I’m very shocked because I’ve been lucky enough to fly it 3 times for 100 yen so far …However, it may be a good idea to think that if you buy a cockpit that has been a lottery until now, you can definitely fly it
I’m sad about the price increase, but I’d like to try flying!

There are many spots where you can take wonderful photos!
The museum offers a variety of places where you can take great photos, so both adults and children can enjoy it until the end.A cabin mock-up that makes you feel like you’re on a jet plane, a room that only tour conductors can enter, which you can never usually see (Is it a room where drinks, food, etc. are made?) I was also able to see it.The wonderful photos taken here will surely be a memory of your wonderful trip!
Collect stamps to commemorate the occasion!
If you collect all the stamps in the museum on a mount that can be purchased for 200 yen, you can get goods that can only be obtained here, so I did my best to find stamps!I had a hard time because it was in an unexpected place, but I managed to get 5 stamps and get goods!
The mount is the design of an airplane ticket!
Even adults can enjoy the exhibition room where you can learn while playing!
In the exhibition room on the second floor, you can see a video introducing Narita Airport and a diorama where you can enjoy the actual view from the observation deck.In particular, the exhibition where you can put a photo of your face in the avatar of an airport worker is a great deal of excitement for parents and children!The camera shot from below at an angle, so it looked a little strange, and we all laughed out loud.
Experience and learn! It’s a sight to behold!
In addition, there is a sound experience room where you can “experience the sound of an airliner” and how the things we use on a daily basis are used in airports and airplanes. It’s an excellent sight to see how the suitcase is loaded onto the plane!
There is a lot to learn, so it may be good for free research during summer vacation.
The meal while looking at the runway is the best!
At the restaurant on the 4th floor of the central building, there are noodles such as udon and ramen, as well as gutsy and children’s lunches such as karaage bowls and katsu curry(with toys) and so on.It’s hard to decide which one to eat.On this day, I had an iced coffee while having Mont Blanc. I was tired from walking around the hall, so I felt it was very delicious.
Lunch while watching the planes take off and land is a luxury!

A road station where “planes fly directly overhead”?!
Located 10 minutes by car, “Roadside Station Fuwari” isA roadside station where you can see planes taking off and landing at Narita Airport directly above youHowever, Coco’s bread is exquisite! It is the author’s recommendation that you eat while watching the airplane on the bench on the lawn outside.The shuttle system, which operated from 1992 to 2013, is also on display, so please take a look.
The fluffy and crispy freshly baked bread is my recommendation!
Take a walk and eat while taking a walk at “Naritasan Omotesando”!
Located 20 minutes by car and 32 minutes by bus, Naritasan Omotesando is not only famous for its eels, but also very popular for eating and walking.Gourmet food starts at 100 yen, so I recommend that you share it with several people and taste various things little by little!The park behind Shinshoji Temple is also large and recommended for walking!
There are many cheap and delicious gourmet foods on the approach~!
You can play all day in nature! “Hill of the Grass Flute”
Located 42 minutes by car, Grass Flute Hill is located on a large site.There are animals, campgrounds, and a number of athletic facilities where you can play all day long.There were many people who brought tents to the square and spent a relaxing time. The Toei Subway Mita Line is also on display, so be sure to look for it!
