Tokyo sealife aquarium

The tuna exhibition

Kasai-rinkai park includes the Tokyo Sealife Aquarium, a birdwatching area, a large ferris wheel, and fun street performers on weekends.

The Tokyo Sealife Aquarium is shaped like a white dome, and its main attraction is a large tank full of tasty tuna! It's a great site to see the large tuna fish swimming right in front of you. They also have a penguin exhibition, along with hammerhead sharks and manta rays. It's not that big of an aquarium but at about 700 yen for entrance, you'll have a good time.

The park also includes a lot of grassy areas and seashore where you will find many birds. There is a building in the middle with telescopes where you can birdwatch.

A large and colorful ferris wheel dominates the skyline as well, and if you come on weekends you'll probably find some street performers to entertain you.


From Shinjuku, take the Chuuo JR line to Tokyo, and then transfer to the JR kasai-rinkai line to Kasairinkaikoen. See http://www.hyperdia.com/cgi-english/hyperWeb.cgi for train information.
