1. Fujiko F. Fujio Museum
With news of the recent passing of Motoo Abiko, one half of the artistic duo called Dr Fujiko A Fujio behind Doraemon, many are reminiscing on their favourite robotic cat from the 22nd century whose magical 4D Pocket is always full of tools, gadgets and his favourite snack, dorayaki. If you want to revisit your childhood or introduce Doraemon to your children, the Fujiko F. Fujio Museum—otherwise known as the Doraemon Musem—in Kawasaki, Japan is the way to go. Inside, there are displays of the cartoon's most iconic films and mangas with life-size statues of Doraemon. For adults, there is original artwork from Doraemon, 21-emon, Kaibutsukun, and several of Fujiko's other series as well as a themed café and gift shop.
