[2024 Osaka Attraction] Travel Guide for Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan (Updated Nov)

Osaka, Japan, cute penguins and aquarium

#JapanTravel 📌Location: Osaka Kaiyukan 📌Features: It's great to see it together with the Tempozan Ferris Wheel. Kaiyukan is an aquarium with the concept of going down to the bottom of the sea from the 8th floor to the 4th floor, so the fish tank?? is huge and long. The Osaka Kaiyu Kitpu, which combines the Kaiyukan admission ticket and a 1-day pass for Osaka's transportation (subway, bus, New Tram), allows you to get a 50% discount on admission to major tourist facilities in the Osaka Port area. At the pier right next to Kaiyukan, you can board the Santa Maria, where you can enjoy a sightseeing cruise. This ship is a sightseeing ship that is twice the size of the Santa Maria, the sailing ship that Columbus rode when he discovered the American continent. It's worth a visit. Recommended!!!! #Osaka #Kaiyukan #OsakaAquarium

The largest indoor aquarium in the world, Osaka is a must-visit

☀️ 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!

You do not have to be over excited when you first see the whale sharks cause the tank is 360 degree and spiral all the way down. You will get to view at different height, different angles.

Biggest Aquarium Tank in the World

Not many ppl know Osaka's KAIYUKAN is the world's largest public aquarium. There are large tanks, areas to experience nature from all around the world and many more! #couplestrip#awesomepic#museumquest#seasidephotoguide#naturalwonders#seafoodfeast

#tripaway Osaka's KAIYUKAN is one of the largest public aquariums in the world. even the locals enjoy visiting. #aquarium #whaleshark #dolphins #jellyfish #penguins #tripaway

For those who visit Kaiyukan, you should definitely visit the Tempozan Marketplace right next to the aquarium as well. There’s a mini zoo and a large old-Japan themed food court on the lowest floor. After enjoying lunch there, Kaiyukan is around 5 minutes walk away. It’s mesmerizing inside so prepare to spend more than two hours watching different species of fishes and simply relax in the aquarium. #happynewyear

What started as a 'hmm', went to 'oooooh', to 'wow', to 'WHOA!'. You can even pet stingrays if you want. This is biggest aquarium I've ever seen! Whale sharks swim right up to your face in the large tank and you can pet enormous stingrays in the touching pool. We really enjoyed the Aquarium. The walk round going down to different levels of the sea is great, and there's even some non - aquatic animals to begin with. The artic seals and Harbour seals stole the shoe for us! The big tank in the middle is impressive, but still sad to see 2 whale sharks in there as for them it's nothing compared to the ocean. There is a really beautiful jellyfish area where you can see them glow in the dark, and the souveneirs are cute. The stars are the whale sharks and seals. I really recommend the touching pool to get your hands on a Ray or shark. The rays feel so soft like a jelly or tapioca! And the sharks are rough like sand! So unique to experience. #givethanks #givethanks

The Osaka Aquarium was one of the nicest aquariums I have been to. It is quite a large institution, with multiple floors that exhibit different parts of the Pacific Ocean. It's really quite the trip, beginning with Japanese wildlife and taking us to places like the California Coast that I live next to and the deep sea. There was a huge pool in the center that featured a massive whale shark, amongst other larger fish.

Osaka is the second biggest city in Japan and for sure there are a lot to do and see there, but if you are a sea life fan like me I think Aquarium Kaiyukan is one of the places you should visit, the sea animals are well protected and there a lot of different type of se creatures to be seen. From Osaka it can be easily reach by subway. Also aquarium is home to Osaka’s one of the most famous landmark Ferris Wheel, a must visit place with reasonable entrance ticket price.

Known as the world's largest aquarium, the Aquarium replicates the specific parts of the Pacific Rim with its oversized fish tanks – from the “Japanese forest” of the beautiful Japanese forests that are filled with sunlight to the “Antarctic continent” covered by snow and ice. The biggest highlight is the giant whale shark in the centre tank. After entering the hall, take the elevator to the 8th floor, then walk down the ramp. Visiting the entire Aquarium will take about two and a half hours. My brother was hungry by the end of it, but eating in the area is not allowed. There is a restaurant floor where you can sit and eat something. I bought sandwiches, drinks and sea salted ice cream. There is an open exhibition area where you can touch the whale shark. The skin of the whale shark is not as slippery as I thought it would be. 

Taking Your Kids to Osaka Aquarium

Parents planning to take their kids to Osaka should not miss Kaiyukan, an aquarium with activities for children to explore. The fish here are different from those in our local aquariums, with the highlight being a large whale shark that kids will love. Additionally, there are activities like backstage tours and boat rides. Note: Be sure to bring cash as credit cards are not accepted.

Make sure you have an international calling card or a mobile phone card that can be used in Japan. In addition, bring a mobile phone charger, after all, taking pictures and navigation are inseparable from mobile phones. 🌍Next, the power sockets in Japan are different from those in many countries, so you may need to bring a plug converter. This ensures that your electronic devices can be charged smoothly there. 📂Then we need to consider the issue of documents. Since Japan is a country that requires a visa, please make sure to bring your passport, visa and other important documents with you instead of discovering that you have forgotten them just before departure. 👕🧣 Let’s talk about clothing. The temperature in Japan in November is variable, and the temperature difference may be large throughout the day, so please refer to the layering method so that you can flexibly adjust even if the temperature changes. Hats and scarves are also a must. In terms of maintenance, long-distance flights and jet lag may cause discomfort, so it is a good idea to prepare some supplies that are suitable for you, as well as sunscreen. Even in winter, the sun in Japan is quite strong. 🎒Finally, don’t forget to bring a backpack suitable for visiting Japanese attractions. For example, if you plan to go hiking or visit temples, it is recommended to choose a backpack that is convenient and comfortable. While you enjoy the view, protect your personal belongings. / If you like my Japan travel guide, just click three times in one click (follow + like + collect)~ Let’s find happiness together in the world of falling cherry blossoms! 😊🌸
