A Hello Kitty-themed fantasy world on Awaji Island featuring projection shows, gourmet dining, character art, and sea views.
MK Guide Recommends
Hello Kitty Smile is more than a themed café—it’s a vast seaside paradise that combines high-tech visuals, innovative cuisine, and the timeless appeal of Hello Kitty. Located on the western coast of Awaji Island, this character-themed complex offers various zones, including a Hello Kitty-themed projection mapping theater, an art gallery highlighting her journey, and a gift shop full of exclusive merchandise. Visitors can dine at multiple restaurants, such as Asian-fusion and sushi spots, where the decor, tableware, and even the food honor the iconic feline. Kids have the chance to interact with Hello Kitty herself, while adults can enjoy oceanfront terraces with views of the Harimanada Sea. The site also hosts seasonal events, character appearances, and caters to both casual fans and dedicated Sanrio lovers seeking a dreamy island getaway.
