Ryu Tokyo visited Sumida Aquarium, which is located in Tokyo Skytree Town in the Asakusa area. Sumida Aquarium reopened in June 2020 after lockdown, and since July 16th, 2020, it offers two new zones called "Big Schale (Petri Dish)" and "Aqua Base." 500 jellyfish lit-up in a rainbow color at Big Schale is otherworldly and a must-see.
Sumida Aquarium offers an impressive menagerie of sea life, with modern glass habitats that recreate the underwater worlds of Tokyo Bay. Besides jellyfish, the indoor open-pool tank allows you to watch penguins and fur seals go about their daily routines. We hope you'll enjoy the virtual tour with us.
