In the afternoon we took the subway to visit a chocolate factory. After following the signs pointing towards the factory from the subway station, this was the point where Emma said "I don't see any more signs pointing towards the chocolate factory, I don't know which way we should go"
The gate
The entry
Their illuminations
Old chocolate posters
more illuminations
The first part of the building is laid out like the home of a gentleman explorer from Victorian era London, with the exception of the white chocolate ninjas
and the illuminations
there was a phone stand so you could take a selfie in front of the tree
the chocolate factory mascot appears to be this cat (or pair of cats).
It appears in various places, including sometimes animated on screens, where it reminds me a bit of Alleycat)

The next section of the building is decorated like a Bavarian Castle.
Cat prints. There'll be a broom along any minute I'm sure.
On one side of the corridor you can see into the factory floor.
on the other there is a display showing the white chocolate ninjas fuck-assing about making chocolate on bizarre machinery
and a description of the process
they also make a cake that is wrapped around itself in a roll
If you're willing to get there early and pay extra (and probably wait an unreasonable amount of time) you can do a variety of activities (cook cake, decorate cookies, that sort of jazz)
The cats are all over the place
Including on the toilet signs
Probably makes it hard for the disabled guy to pee
Outside there's some animatronic chefs that periodically appear and sing
while some cute characters dance around over here.
It has a real low rent disneyland feel to it.
