Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan
Entrance Fee: 2300yen (depends on if you like seeing fishes n penguins or not, pretty ok pricing still)
---------------------------------------
One of the biggest public aquariums in the world, featuring 27 tanks in 16 main exhibits, with habitats from the ring of fire area of the pacific ocean, has a 9 meter deep main tank that houses variety of fish including 2 whale sharks. Also have a special interactive area where you can touch seals, penguins and manta rays.
---------------------------------------
My intention of going to the aquarium was to buy the transformable penguin plush for my friend (btw this is a must buy its super cool but abit expensive and only available at the souvenir shop inside fking smart japs). But the aquarium is surprisingly good, get to see alot of stuff like otter seals sharks dolphin jellyfish crab manta etc. The aquarium has a fixed path to follow its quite easy to navigate, the main thing of the aquarium is the giant main tank which looks super amazing, you get to see alot of fishes, mantas and some lazy sharks lying in the corner, it houses 2 whale sharks which are rly beautiful animals. around 1/3 of the path in aquarium walking around the circular main tank from top to bottom so you get to see things from all angle. Its nice of them to have many chairs installed along the spiral main tank path. Rly romantic place for couples(quite alot of couples were there). I can sit in front of the tank and stare at the fishes for the whole day very mesmerizing. Touch zone is pretty cool too but I wonder if it will have negative effect on the animals. The harbor besides the aquarium has some really nice views, nice place to walk around and chill aft visiting the aquarium.
