Ghibli Park Unveils Mouthwatering Restaurants in Valley of the Witches
Allow the smell of fresh-baked bread guide you into Ghibli Park’s Valley of the Witches.
Studio Ghibli is notorious for making fans salivate over their food animation. For years, viewers had to use their imagination, but now they’ll be able to sink their teeth into some scrumptious bakery goodies.
As per SoraNews24, the Valley of Witches, the final area to be unveiled at the Ghibli Park, will feature all things witchy, including Kiki’s Delivery Service, Howl’s Moving Castle, and Earwig and the Witch. Visitors can head into Gütiokipänjä, the bakery in Kiki’s Delivery Service, to buy some delicious bread. They can also visit Soratobu Oven (Flying Oven) for oven-baked dishes like pies and quiches. And if that doesn’t sate visitors’ stomachs, they can also go to the Hot Tin Roof for some hot dogs that can be eaten outside.
In addition to the bakery, Gütiokipänjä will also have the attic where Kiki and Jiji slept for visitors to visit. The Valley of the Witches will also have a store called 13 Witches where visitors can buy original merchandise. The only hint of the interior is that it will have “unique shelves.”
Studio Ghibli announced their plans to open the Ghibli Park as early as June 2017 and opened its first area, the Mononoke Village, on Nov. 1, 2023. Mononoke Village recreates the environment from the eponymous Princess Mononoke film. The park also has the Dondoko Forest which is the location of Satsuki and Mei’s house from My Neighbor Totoro. The Hill of Youth is centred around Howls’ Moving Castle, Whisper of the Heart and The Cat Returns. Ghibli’s Grand Warehouse will feature character exhibitions as well as the area from Castle in the Sky.
The Valley of the Witches opens in Ghibli Park on March 16.
