Yes, the UNKO Museum is what you think it is — a museum about POOP. And honestly? It's one of the funniest, most photogenic, most kid-pleasing spots in all of Tokyo. "Unko" means "poop" in Japanese, and the entire museum is a Pinterest-perfect, pastel-colored, interactive playground celebrating it. Kids will be CRYING with laughter the entire time.
What makes it special: This isn't gross — it's CUTE poop. Like, sparkly cartoon emoji poop. Highlights include the giant poop mountain you can climb and slide down, the "poop volcano" eruption show with confetti, the pull-the-poop game, an interactive poop karaoke room, and so many photo backdrops. The whole place is a sensory overload of pink, gold, and rainbow toilets. Truly only in Japan.
