BOSS E・ZO FUKUOKA: Amusement Facility That Lets You Slide Down A Building

BOSS E・ZO FUKUOKA


BOSS E・ZO FUKUOKA may be a strange name for a building, but perhaps it’s only fitting as it is also an amusement facility that houses a plethora of boss-level activities for visitors to enjoy. Its most wacky feature is a 100m-long slide attached to the side of the building for visitors who find taking an elevator down to the ground floor too boring.

The tube slide at BOSS E・ZO FUKUOKA is the first of its kind in Japan, and it boasts a length of 100m and a height of 40m.

The ride is perfect for those who are afraid of roller coasters but want to experience a milder version of that thrill.

You may have heard of teamLab and their world renowned art exhibitions, such as their stunning makeover of Kairakuen garden that was open to the public for a limited time in early 2022.

TeamLab has a permanent exhibition there called Forest, which features a variety of flora and fauna exhibits created using both art and technology.

Teamlab’s brilliant use of illumination immerses visitors in the surreal worlds that they create, and this is further achieved by the interactive aspect of most of their installations. 

Here’s a sneak preview of the exhibition:

The building also has a virtual arcade dubbed V-world Area, which stands for Virtual World Area. Here, visitors can engage in a wide selection of virtual reality (VR) games to their heart’s content.
