Universal Studios Japan | Osaka

20 August 2016

Hey Hey Sweeties! Nice to see you here and I'm back again with another blog post about my Osaka & Kyoto trip few months ago. This post is all about how I'm having fun in Universal Studios @Osaka, Japan. It's quite fun to look back all the beautiful photo I took during the trip and I'm so in love with Harry Potter at USJ. It's really fun to explore it because it's my first time to Universal Studios. I never been there and it's why I'm really excited for the first time HAHAAHAH!

I spent a lot of time doing research on how to purchase the ticket but ended up I decided to get the entrance ticket in Malaysia from the authorise travel agency that stated from the official Universal Studios Japan website (https://www.usj.co.jp/e/ticket/index.html)

|  How much & where to get the ticket :- 
There are two type of ticket available. It's the entrance studio pass and express pass. The diff between both of the pass = Studio pass grants you admission to the park while an Universal Express pass will shorten the waiting time for attractions. I wanted to get both express pass for my friends and I but unfortunately all express pass was sold out during the time I visit to JTB travel agency @KLCC. 

It's good to drop them a call and ask them before you heading to their counter and get your ticket. Or else you can actually email them so you can save your time travel all the way to JTB Travel Agency @KLCC. 

Price of each ticket 



You can click on the link above to know the nearest agency that sell the studio pass for you to enter USJ. I decided to purchase and visit JTB because I get it really last mins (1 week before my trip), plus I really hope to get the express pass myself so I no need wait and queue for the ride but it's sold out :'( It's 6,852 yen (7,400 yen with tax) for the entrance pass to USJ per person. 

Here's the JTB Travel Agency express counter's detail :-

Event Hall 2nd Floor, Isetan KLCC, Suria KLCC, 50088 Kuala Lumpur
10:30 am – 8:30 pm (Daily, including Public Holidays)
Tel:    (EN) +60 3-21817626   or   +60 3-2181 7627

It's located at the second floor of Isetan KLCC and I included everything here so hopefully no one come to email me again for the price and where I get the ticket. For the express pass it's recommended for you to get the 5 ride pass if you have extra budget. The Harry Potter ride was super duper fun. If you go without the express pass it might takes you around 2-3 hours just to queue for the ride. So it's best if you could get an express pass instead of wasting your half day time to queue for it.

|  How to go :- 
Again, google maps app is my travel essential! I use google maps all the time when I'm travel to Osaka & Kyoto for the first time. So from your homestay you just need to key in your final destination, the app itself will stated diff route and time for you. 


Universal- city station!!! Yay we actually went to the wrong station at first but I'm fine with it because  people there was really helpful and friendly. I went to the wrong MRT hahahaha but luckily we able to make it on time! WOOOO-HOOOOO~

The USJ Entrance Pass

I'm here yooo~


 My Partner in crime - ahMing

 No need queue for this because we got our entrance ticket when I'm in Malaysia! Woohooo

 First time take photo in front of here! Tourist photo spot! HAHAHAHA

Another one! lol Kiasu the max




Before enter USJ we just grab a copy of USJ map and this is really important. Keep this in mind so you can run to the top part of the park and take as much as photo you want and slowly walk to the bottom. Then you can take some perfect shot without photo bomb behind. AHAHAHAH Another tips for you!

 Should I get this home? hmmm...







Are you ready?!! Let's get started!

Personally I prefer USJ because it's more suitable for adult like us and of course HARRY POTTER + SPIDERMAN!! Spiderman is my brother favourite hero!! 



 OMG THIS IS SO CUTE! MELT MY HEART!!

|  Wonderland :- 
It's an outdoor park where a nature-filled setting is blended with the world of Sesame Street. So colourful and really eye catching!





I have the best travel partner this time because she was holding my camera + take photo without I ask her to do so. This is the reason why I took so many photo during my April Sakura Trip in Japan. Thanks ahMing!! Love her so much and we have so much fun during our trip. Both of us can talk until midnight and done makeup + hair within 20 mins! She was really quick and efficient like me!! Travelling with her like travelling with Smelly. Both of us are really random and we just eat rice ball all day long , sit beside the road and talk all day long lol

| *Updated: Universal Studio Japan (Special Halloween)
The previous one was taken during April this year and my second visit to USJ is during the autumn period and during this period, USJ is celebrating the Happy Halloween. Therefore, there are some night event like zombie night out just available during this period of visit only. Here's some of the photo I took. Enjoy reading and let's the photo do the talking!

#ChanwonxTips: During my second visit I successful play the Harry Potter & spiderman ride without buying any express pass. I guess it's because not a peak season and I waited 35 mins for the Harry Potter ride and 50 mins for the spider-man ride. Once I reach USJ, I just skipped everything and straight went into the Harry Potter world and after taking the ride, I just slowly enjoy the rest and it's why it only took me 35 mins to play the ride. Smart tips for you!!


 Halloween Meal
 Halloween minions
 Halloween event: Zombie night!





 Look how cool it is!!! Photo taken by myself! OMG Found this hiding spot!!
I love to explore more at the same place again & again :p

Halloween decoration!

That's all and hope this is useful for you!! Plan your day and spend a whole day with your friends at USJ here!!
