The mushroom-shaped buildings, the brightly colored peak-roofed cabins, and the golden autumn leaves are set against each other, just like entering the world of Nordic fairy tale picture books. This is トーベ · ヤンソンあけぼの Jae の Mori Park located in Iineh City, Saitama Prefecture. The park, also known as ムーミン Valley Park, is based on the Fairy tales of moomin by Finnish writer Tove Jansson. I've been so eager to recommend my daughter.

Named after the original Moomin author Tove Jansson... There are mushroom houses, forest houses, and fairytale houses. It's a small park, but it's very romantic. There is a sense of stepping from Japan into northern Europe.

Here is a park built according to the correspondence manuscript of Tove Jansson. Oh, the whole theme park is a forest park that hopes to let children grow up happily in nature. Take a fairytale scene and move it into the forest ️


Born in Finland in 1914 to a sculptor father and a painter mother, Tove Jansson grew up in a free and artistic environment with an unrestrained imagination. The Moomin series of picture books is her successful work after becoming a painter, depicting Finland's nature, human life, family and friends as well as her childhood memories through cartoon characters. This series of 9 books has been translated into more than 30 languages and is loved by children all over the world. My family also bought this series of mugs, after visiting the park I could not help but add an order, because it is so love.

❇️ Watch for:

🌟 Lulu Mi Home

This is a fairy tale cabin! The mushroom look is so cute. Go inside, all wooden structures like branches connect a number of intricate wonderful Spaces, many children play here until they refuse to go...

🌟 The waterside cottage

The blue peaked house on the water's edge is a pond frequented by the main characters in the picture book. Even though there is nothing in it, you can feel the kind of unrestrained silence.

🌟 Forest House

The exterior walls of the building are wavy, so it is easy to notice that this is a longitudinal joint made of cypress logs produced by the city of Iineng, which won the design award. The warm reading space makes people feel like being in a forest cabin, relatively quiet and beautiful.
