It will occupy over 1,890 square metres of space, bringing to life 10 of the most iconic scenes from Studio Ghibli’s works, such as “My Neighbor Totoro,” “Howl’s Moving Castle,” “Spirited Away,” “KiKi’s Delivery Service,” “Princess Mononoke,” “Laputa: Castle in the Sky,” “Porco Rosso,” “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind,” “Ponyo on a Cliff by the Sea,” and “Pom Poko.”
