SUMIDA AQUARIUM
This aquarium is located in the 5th and 6th floors of Tokyo Soramachi(R) inside Tokyo Skytree Town(R). It has attracted attention for exhibits that break the mold of typical aquariums. These include the Tokyo Daisuiso, which recreates the waters of the Ogasawara Islands, a world heritage site. It also includes the Edorium, which displays goldfish in dreamlike Japanese-style spaces. At the Aqua Lab, visitors can watch the caretakers breed and research jellyfish. Visitors love watching the penguins swim in the aquarium's indoor open pool tank, one of the largest in Japan.

- Beautiful aquarium. Suitable for families with younger kids
- Beautiful aquarium! It wasn’t too much for my kids ages 1+, 7 and 9 to experience but enough to see a variety of sea creatures. Cosy enough to get up close to penguins and seals. Highly recommended...

- A good morning spent at the aquarium
- This was a good hour or so to see some interesting sealife. The atmosphere was excellent and very artistic. Atleast an hour to see everything. They also have seals and penguins.
