Toei Kyoto Studio Park (東映太秦映画村, Tōei Uzumasa Eigamura) is a theme park and film set modeled after the Edo period located in Kyoto, Japan that opened its doors in 1975.[1][2][3] It is situated in Toei Company's Kyoto Studio where movies have been produced.[4][5]

Projects filmed at the park include Sebastiano Serafini's historical Japan-themed music video for the single "Inori".[6] A song from Kevin and Karyn’s Chinese-language album was also filmed in this area.[7]
