Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan

Local name海遊館
LocationMinato Ward, Osaka, Japan

One of the most popular aquariums in the world. It is home to more than 15 tanks, each representing a different region with various kinds of marine animals.

You will encounter tanks called the Japan Forest, Antarctica, the Pacific Ocean and many more. Having the chance to meet around 30,000 animals of 620 species, you will surely find a few that you are interested in. There are sea lions, otters, penguins, dolphins, rays, jellyfish, and - the biggest tourist magnet - whale sharks.

Some of the tanks are built in a way that you can see them both from up and down. You can also see and touch animals in special exhibits designated for close contact. The aquarium is located roughly a 5-minute walk away from the Osakako metro station.
