When I first heard about Madame Tussauds Tokyo, I honestly didn’t expect much. But after finally visiting, I can say it’s one of the most fun and surprising experiences I’ve had in Odaiba. Imagine walking into a room and suddenly standing face-to-face with your favorite celebrities—it feels unreal!
I remember taking countless selfies, from world leaders and sports icons to Hollywood stars and even J-pop legends. For me, the highlight was being able to “meet” some of the people I’ve only ever admired on TV. It’s surreal, even if they’re just wax replicas—the details are so spot-on that you almost expect them to blink or move.

A Bit of History
The Madame Tussauds experience started in London over 200 years ago, founded by Marie Tussaud, who was famous for her wax sculpting skills. Since then, it has grown into a global attraction with branches in cities like New York, Hong Kong, and of course—Tokyo. Each museum has its own unique lineup of figures, making every visit a little different.
My Personal Takeaway of Madame Tussauds Tokyo
If you’re looking for a fun spot to enjoy with friends or family in Odaiba, Madame Tussauds is definitely worth a visit. It’s not just about looking at wax figures—it’s about creating funny, memorable photos and enjoying the feeling of “meeting” your idols. I left with my camera full of souvenirs and my heart full of excitement.
