Hayao Miyazaki is back, but for a promo of the future Ghibli Park

Only a few months to go before the opening of the first Amusement Park of Studio Ghibli. Below we see a small promo made by one of his fathers.

The Ghibli Park (Jiburipaku) is still under construction near the city of Nagakute (Aichi prefecture - approximately in the center of the country, between Tokyo and Osaka) and should open its doors next November 1st, 2022.

The project includes five areas but only three will be available at the opening: Ghibli's Grand Warehouse (linked to the film Castle in the Sky and with characters from other films), Hill of Youth (linked to Howl, Whisper of the Heart and The Cat Returns), and the Dondoko Forest where Satsuki and Mei's house is already present (built in 2005) by My Neighbour Totoro.

The final project should materialize around 2024 with the opening of the Mononoke Village and the Valley of the Witches. This one should be the largest, with attractions related to the films Kiki's Delivery Service and Howl's Moving Castle.

Waiting for more information, here is the promo animated by Hayao Miyazaki, narrated by the historic Ghibli producer Toshio Suzuki and with the music of another historical piece of the studios, the composer Joe Hisaishi:
