Osaka Aquarium KAIYUKAN

Osaka Aquarium KAIYUKAN is an aquarium which is located in Osaka city, Tenpozan, and was opened in 1990. The concepts are “the Pacific rim fire zone” and “the Pacific rim life zone”. Kaiyukan has huge water tank and it changed impression of traditional aquarium.
The characteristic of the outward appearance of the building is three kinds of color-code, and it stands for combination of the earth, the water and the fire.
I was surprised, but who decided the name of Kaiyukan is Emiko Kaminuma.


Around Kaiyukan, there are many places. There are Tenpozan market place, very big Ferris wheel, tourism ship Santa Maria, and Suntry Museum. The entrance fee is 2000 yen.
From October 24th to December 25th, Kaiyukan has X’mas decoration. I went to there and looked very beautiful spectacle last year. I recommend you that go to there with confidence.
