OSAKA AQUARIUM ..

Known as Kaiyukan in Japanese, it's one of the best aquariums in the world.  

The Kaiyukan has been designed in such a way the visitors can encounter marine creatures up-close.

Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan offers Visitors a chance to marvel at the spectacular marine life of the Pacific Rim, from the Great Barrier Reef to the Arctic. Home to 30,000 creatures and 620 species in all, each of the aquarium's colossal viewing tanks re-creates one of the Pacific Ocean's astonishingly diverse habitats and ecosystems.

Visitors can meet whale sharks, rays, sea lions, and penguins at close quarters and experience the remarkable sights and sounds of the ocean's inhabitants and its varied coastline.

Visitors can find the aquarium's star attractions in the main Pacific Ocean tank. Enormous whale sharks swim peacefully alongside stingrays and hammerhead sharks while shoals of smaller fish dart among them undisturbed.

Please visit these two websites for in-depth information on Aquarium.
