Essentials about the Sumida Aquarium in brief

Fish fans have a fixed place to go in Tokyo with the Sumida Aquarium. Located in Tokyo Solamachi, the shopping center at the foot of Tokyo Skytree, the aquarium features around 7,000 marine creatures from 260 different species. The aquarium’s glass tanks recreate the underwater worlds of Tokyo Bay, the Izu Islands and the Ogasawara Islands. The main attraction of the Sumida Aquarium is the open indoor tank where penguins and fur seals cavort. And the aquarium’s jellyfish exhibit is also one of the largest and most interesting in all of Asia.
