Kaiyukan is an aquarium that faithfully recreates the natural environment of the Pacific Ocean and its surrounding waters. Each region of the Ring of Fire that surrounds the Pacific Ocean has been selected and recreated in a large tank. Each tank in the aquarium is positioned to correspond to an actual geographical location in the Pacific Ocean. Approximately 30,000 creatures of 620 species are kept and exhibited in various tanks, including the "Pacific Ocean" tank in the center of the building where whale sharks swim leisurely, the "Japanese Forest" tank with its lush vegetation and waterfall, and the "Tasman Sea" tank where white-sided dolphins live. The "Jellyfish Galaxy" tank, which explores the charm of jellyfish, and the "Arctic Circle" tank, where ringed seals and other creatures live, are also popular.

the penguins were cute and I wish to adopt some of them if I’m super rich. it was a great experience to visit that place with my friends.
huge aquarium with two whale sharks as it’s main attraction. there were so many different sealife to watch and could enjoy the whole afternoon with these beautiful marine life. it is a great place for families with kids.
An amazing experience at this world class aquarium. As one of the largest in the world, it can truly live up to its name. From sea life to reptiles, you are guided from area to area, taking in the many sights and amazements of the various exhibits. One of the best parts of the experience is the under aquarium tube that you travel through - being able to see many underwater giants float all around you. Don’t miss the dolphin show as it’s quite remarkable the agility and skill of this ocean wonder
The aquarium is really one of the best spots to relax on weekends. the colorful aquatic series with surroundings pleasant ambience makes this trip a worth. Penguins 🐧 and seal 🦭 are worth to watch and then add happiness with clown fish.
It will look at first glance like an oddly shaped red and blue building but it is actually the Osaka Kaiyukan which contains within it an aquarium. It is a very popular tourist destination and on the day we visited, we arrived during midday without having booked a ticket only to be told that we had to wait until 4 PM before there is space for us to go into the Kaiyukan. There is thankfully the Tempozan shopping center nearby to kill sometime. Entering the Kaiyukan, the visitor is first directed
Osaka's aquarium claims to be the largest in JapanRecommendation index:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This is also the first Japanese aquarium I went toThe overall facilities have a sense of time, smaller than expected but with a reasonable layout and route. The venue design is quite textured, but the only drawback is that there are not many aquatic organisms and too many people in JapanThe highlights include: whale shark , overturning fish and deep-sea fish whale shark.
One of the good thing about this facility is that it is well lighted and bright for photo taking. There are also about 2 whale sharks there. One of the biggest tanks I have seen in the Asia countries that I visited.
