An urban-style aquarium with the concept of a "sky oasis" that takes advantage of its rooftop location on a building. The "Sky Penguins" where penguins swim like flying through an overhead tank is a must-see, and sea lion and otter performances are also popular. The facility is compact and easy to navigate with children.
Tips
On busy days, purchasing time-slot-designated web tickets is a safe bet. The outdoor area is popular, so bring a raincoat on rainy days. It's more comfortable to leave your baby stroller near the entrance.
Best time to visit
Allow just over 2 hours. Right after opening is the quietest.
