☀️ In the scorching summer heat, of course, it's best to find indoor places to have fun! The aquarium is a great place for both education and entertainment~ 🇯🇵 I visited Osaka 10 years ago, and the most memorable place was the aquarium. 💃 I didn't think I would visit the aquarium again this time, but when I found out that the zoo was closed on Monday, I decided to go to the aquarium instead~ 🚇 Transportation: Getting off at the Universal Port Station is super convenient, just a few steps away from Tempozan. I wouldn't recommend driving as the parking fee is a bit expensive. 🎫 Tickets: Adult tickets are 2700 each, and there are also package deals available, including options like the Captain Line and the Santa Maria. We bought the one that includes the Santa Maria, which was 3700 per person. ✨ How to play: Claimed to be the largest aquarium in the world, I'm not sure if it is, but it feels like it's about the same as the rest of Asia. The area with the most people at the start is where you should quickly browse, and then take your time to enjoy the less crowded areas. The whale shark zone is really crowded! But the whale sharks are so cute!!! I didn't get to see the otters much this time, which was a bit disappointing. The aquarium is very clean, and there are also restaurants and souvenir shops. ⚠️Tips: There's a lot to do at Tempozan, including a Ferris wheel, shopping mall, Santa Maria, etc. You won't be bored spending a whole day here! 💙 In conclusion, the aquarium is a great place to escape the heat and truly enjoy the charm of marine life!

Let's follow the footsteps of the NCT127 boys at Kaiyukan Aquarium! Kaiyukan Aquarium is one of the must-visit attractions in Osaka, as it is the largest aquarium in Asia. It features a wide variety of aquatic animals and other species that are not found in Thailand, such as whale sharks and otters. It's definitely a great experience and worth the admission price. There are timed entry slots which you can inquire about at the front counter. The staff are very helpful. I was particularly impressed by the overhead dome where you can see otters swimming through - that's the spot where Jaehyun from NCT took a photo! After visiting the aquarium, you can also go on the Tempozan ferris wheel and take a cruise on the Santa Maria ship to view Osaka Bay, with USJ on the opposite shore. It's like hitting three spots in one visit, saving a lot of time. You can visit all three places in less than a day. The journey is also easy and straightforward, accessible by JR train from Osaka station with just a short walk. I visited in May when the weather wasn't too hot, around 25 degrees Celsius, but the sun was very strong. Don't forget to bring an umbrella or a hat.

#thingstodo Absolutely loved this aquarium. I found it incredibly well done with great exhibits and variety. The Great Barrier Reef section was closed for upgrading works when we were there but it was still an overall fantastic experience. The 2 whale sharks were definitely the highlight. Such beautiful, magnificent creatures. Pro tip: buy your entrance tickets online and get the table of feeding times on the website before you come here and plan your visit accordingly. They don’t display all the feeding times in one place anywhere; rather, the feeding time is displayed on each individual exhibit, so it makes it quite challenging to see overall feeding times in one place to plan your route. You can easily spend half a day here.
