    This aquarium was designed around the concepts of creating a sense of zero distance between visitors and animals, and making contact through handshakes. The aquarium holds a diverse array of events which allow visitors to play with seals lions, spotted seals, and other marine animals. During walrus walk time, visitors can also take a commemorative photo up close with a walrus. The aquarium is divided into different themed areas, including a fish hall, marine mammal square, and sea lion hall. In July 2020, a new dedicated seahorse exhibit and cafe-themed UOASIS exhibited were added.

    This aquarium is not so big,but really nice aquarium! Many kinds of fish, we can see them close at hand. Of course you are not able to touch them. But you are like in the fish world.

    いろいろな施設の入場券と切符がセットになっている近鉄のチケットで鳥羽に行ったときに立ち寄ってみました。鳥羽駅からのバスの本数が少ないので、公共交通機関利用者にとっては、ついでにちょっと立ち寄るというのはなかなか難しいと思います。私が行ったときには混雑しておらずゆっくりと見ることができました。施設そのものはおすすめできます。

    Mie Ise-shi Ueji Cho 1358-1
    "This establishment is one of the ""Ise Street Corner Museums"" - small facilities which introduce the handicrafts and history of Ise. A studio which makes Ise netsuke sash toggles using Japanese box tree wood from Mt. Asama, known as the ""jewel of woods,"" it displays its pieces for the general public to view. Ise netsuke, patterned after traditional Japanese themes of natural beauty, became an essential part of the everyday lives of commoners with the growth of kimono culture. The tiny carvings, just three or four centimeters tall, are imbued with a variety of designs exuding characteristics such as warmth, cuteness, and stylishness. Growing ever more delicate, they eventually developed to the point where they were veritable works of art, and there are many netsuke collectors not only across Japan but around the world."

    Mie Ise-shi Kawasaki 2-19-32
    "This porcelain shop has been in business since the Edo period. The shop displays a collection of porcelain and Nishiki-e prints dating to between the end of the Edo period and the early Meiji period. The establishment is one of the ""Ise Street Corner Museums"" - small facilities run by born and bred Ise natives which introduce the living and breathing culture of Ise. There is an old 64-meter-long trolley rail running from the entrance of the shop to the back which was once used to haul merchandise, hinting at the prosperity once enjoyed by Ise City's Kawasaki district, which was known as the ""pantry of Ise."" In the shop's storehouse in the back (entry fee required), you can view Edo period porcelain as well as a variety of antiques and curios which convey what life was once like here."

Spread across the eastern side of the Kii Peninsula, Mie prefecture boasts hundreds of kilometers of pretty coastline comprising the oyster-rich Toba city and Shima National Park all the way down to Kumano, a city that marks the beginning of part of the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage, which runs into neighboring Wakayama prefecture. However, Mie is best known for the Ise Jingu Shinto shrine inland, one of the oldest and largest shrines in the country.
