Tokyo Dome City Attractions (Thunder Dolphin)
東京ドームシティ アトラクションズ
Korakuen · near Suidobashi Station (JR) / Korakuen Station (Metro)
A free-entry urban amusement park woven between skyscrapers. Its signature ride, the Thunder Dolphin, is an 80m-tall roller coaster that threads through a hole in the Big-O (a centreless Ferris wheel) and the LaQua building. There are also gentle kiddie rides, so it suits mixed-age families.
Why children love it: A thrilling coaster that shoots between buildings plus lots of tamer rides for younger siblings; pay-per-ride means you can do just a few.
Honest drawbacks: Individual ride prices add up; thrill rides have height restrictions; can be crowded on weekends/holidays; open-air rides close in bad weather.
