Ashizuri Underwater Aquarium

Retro awesomeness

The tower is such a period piece, very retro 60s~70s style underwater observatory. It totally looks like something out of an old James Bond movie, like the lair of one of the villains. Don't expect...

A large number of colorful fish flocked to me. Superb view.) After the Heisei era, I think it is worth the experience because there is no such facility.
