Other theme park closures in the area
Though Tokyo Disneyland is the biggest theme park in Japan to close due to the Coronavirus threat, it is not the only theme park in the area that is temporarily shutting down, as Sanrio announced an indoor theme park in suburban Tokyo called Sanrio Puroland and an outdoor theme park in the Kyushu region called Harmonyland will also be closed until March 12. Cultural attractions like the Tokyo National Museum and the Ghibli Museum are also closed as well until further notice.
For a full list of the closures due to Coronavirus, you can check out Time Out's full list here.
Though most of the attractions that are closed are in Tokyo, other regional parks are keeping an eye on the situation without fully closing. As of February 28th, Universal Studios Japan in Osaka is still open, but their website says that they are closely monitoring the situation, and are performing daily health checks on Team Members.
As we've said previously, there is no way to know exactly how long Disney parks (and the travel industry at large) will be dealing with the effects of Coronavirus, but while this situation is continuing, all travelers should check out the CDC's official site here, which has information on the virus and how to prevent its spread.
