Thanks!  I don't know of any others, except for maybe Sanrio Puroland.  That doesn't mean that others don't exist, however.

I asked at the reception desk and they told me that photos inside the museum were okay as long as I didn't take pictures of the original art that was on the wall.

c-square wrote:Hi all,

I've just returned from a great three-week trip around Japan!  One of the many amazing places we visited was Gosho Aoyama's hometown of Hokuei, in Tottori prefecture, which has adopted the Conan series as a theme.  Here are some of the pictures I took:

A welcome sign inside the train station

Some signs outside the station

There are Conan statues all around the city

And this one bridge is especially decorated with Conan

Along the street, they have markers with manga covers

And even the utility-hole covers are decorated with Conan!
Spoiler:

The main attraction, however, is Gosho Aoyama's Manga Factory (complete with Hakase's car sitting out front!)

Inside, the Factory is full of cool exhibits, including a huge shoe,

a voice-changing bow tie you can talk into, and a skateboard you can ride,
Spoiler:
Image
Image


a rather creepy puppet show,
Spoiler:
Image


and the man himself... at least in picture form.
Spoiler:

The gift shop is full of neat Conan stuff (we bought a couple puzzles to put together and display on our walls),
Spoiler:
Image


but I had to take a picture of the Detective Conan Tottori Cow Curry of Enchantment!  ;D

You're just making me jealous of you. I feel like buying a ticket and going there now. I hate you :-[ :'( :'( :'( lol

Ah, I see. Thanks for that clarification. It's a helpful tidbit for me once I finally get to visit Conan Town.
