Sunshine
Aquarium in sunshine city, Ikebukuro, the first rooftop aquarium in Japan, has
just reopened in August 4th after closing for one year for
renovations.
The aquarium
is small compared to normal aquariums but the premium location gives a great advantage
over other aquariums. As with most of the popular places in Tokyo, there are
large crowds on weekends, but late in the afternoon and weekdays is no so bad.
The renovated
marine garden area, has a large elevated see-through pool, where the seals swim
under the open sky. The Sea lions perform at the same area several times per
day.

Greetings from Finland. This, through a blog is a great get to know other countries and their people, nature and culture. Come take a look Teuvo images and blog to tell all your friends that your country flag will stand up to my collection of flag higher. Sincerely, Teuvo Vehkalahti Finland
Thanks Teuvo for visiting, I have visited your blog and it looks great, it is quite similar to the intent of this blog, to portrait of living in the Japan (Finland in your case).
Looks like a fantastic acquarium (which historically I'm not a big fan of)... this one looks great though (and especially the see-through seal part). V cool.
After visiting the Churaumi aquarium in Okinawa, all others feel tiny. I was very curious on the Sunshine aquarium restoration after 1 year closure, and honestly I was a little bit disappointed as apart of the see-through pool, the rest of the aquarium was about the same, nevertheless my 2 years old daughter had a lot of fun.
