New Aquarium In Yokohama: Get Face-To-Face With Seals and Walruses
Sky News has posted a cool gallery of pictures taken at the new Fureai Lagoon aquarium section of Yokohoma’s Hakkeijima Sea Paradise. The new section, which opens on Friday, will allow visitors to get up close and personal with seals, sea lions, and walruses via some innovative tubes and tunnels. This new addition will probably draw huge numbers of tourists to Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, especially since it offers an experience that had previously only existed at the incredibly popular (but very far away) Asahiyama Zoo in Hokkaido (pictured below). Anyone interested in visiting Hakkeijima Sea Paradise can check out their English language website, which is suprisingly helpful and detailed compared to other English language sites for Japanese tourist attractions.
