🎉Alright, have a great trip to Japan and come back with lots of memories!
the largest sea park with big aquarium in Japan, this is the largest aquarium in Okinawa , u can see very amazing dolphin performance show and see different fish and u can enjoy the sea view as well 營業時間:10:00-7pm地址:Okinawa 貼士:I follow one day tour to go 推薦原因:u can spend the four hours to enjoy
In addition to the aquarium and dolphin show, we also visited the Ocean Culture Museum, Planetarium and Folk Village in the park. The three small attractions only cost 190 yen per ticket. The dome movie in the planetarium is beautiful, and the anthropology research and experience in the cultural center are very interesting. It's a pity that I missed the shamisen experience in the folk village, but the overall experience was very pleasant. It is an area with a very high cost performance. Because of the tight schedule and strong cold wind, I didn't have time to visit the tropical plant part. I will make up for it when the weather gets hotter.
The Churaumi Aquarium is a part of the Ocean Expo Park, an ocean park in the north of Okinawa Island. The entire park is built by the sea, and the blue ocean is everywhere. The Kuroshio Sea of the Churaumi Aquarium is the world's largest tank for whale sharks, which runs through the first and second floors of the aquarium. Whale sharks, the world's largest fish, and manta rays, which have been successfully bred artificially for the first time, swim here. Next to the Kuroshio Sea is a cafe. When there are few people, you can sit next to the fish tank, drink a cup of coffee, and watch whale sharks swim by you. In the buffet restaurant of Ocean Expo Park, you can watch dolphin performances from the window.
I stayed at the MAHAINA Hotel near Haibo Park. There was a free shuttle bus every day. So I caught up with the first dolphin show. Not many people sat in the first row. My daughter enjoyed it very much, even more fun than the dolphin show in Hong Kong Ocean Park. Dolphin hall, turtle hall and manatee hall are all near the Beautiful Water Cluster Hall. These places have gone. Because I went in July, it was too hot for my wife. The sand on Jade Beach was so hot that I could boil eggs. After lunch, I went back to the hotel for a rest to go to folk villages and Jade Beach around 5 p.m. I knew that the sun at 17 o'clock in Okinawa was stronger than that at 14 o'clock in Nanjing. I gave up and went to play in the sand bar in spring and autumn. The last two tables were attached. The last one was M. AHAINA Hotel to Ocean Park free shuttle bus flights; the last one is Ocean Park activities schedule, I hope to help you.
Don't rush in at the entrance of Ocean Park, confirm the departure time and estimate the time at the bus stop across the road. There is a clearly marked stop sign, the name of the city bus and the departure time of the bus to Naha are very specific. The latest train on No. 111 departs from the bus terminal at 18:00, while the last bus on No. 20 and No. 120 departs from the bus terminal at 20:00. Ocean Expo Park was established on the basis of the 1975 Chongqing International Ocean Expo. There are mobile sightseeing cars in the park (200 tickets per day or 100 per trip). In July, there is a fireworks festival symbolizing summer sacrifice, and the aquarium and dolphin performances inside can not be missed. It is highly recommended.
Dolphin shows are free to watch. It's really good. Especially for short-term staying group guests, as long as the time is accurate, they don't have to pay to go to the aquarium. The manatees, turtles and dolphin houses are free. Feeding fees for dolphins can be charged to 20 people at a time. When you enter the garden, you can rent a cart for your baby under 2 years of age without deposit or passport.
