Aquatic wonders abound on this fascinating half-day adventure that takes in two sea-themed attractions and a cultural museum.
A 45-minute drive brings you to the Kamo Aquarium, famed for housing the world’s largest collection of jellyfish. Arrive at this modern facility overlooking the Sea of Japan and walk through the colorful displays of over 50 different species of these free-swimming aquatic animals, including thousands of moon jellies that float through the Jellyfish Dream Theater.
Continue to Hiyoriyama Park, located on an artificial hill with views of the port and showcasing historical items. You’ll find the oldest stone compass and oldest wooden lighthouse in Japan here, as well as a half-sized replica of a cargo ship.
Don’t miss the Sankyo Rice Storehouse. Constructed in 1893, this former rice facility has been renovated to include a mini-museum that showcase multiple aspects of this vital grain.
