Osaka Aquarium

Since we both finished our projects, we have some time to travel around! So, we went to Osaka Aquarium!

Osaka Aquarium is a huge building filled with bigger and smaller tanks that hold the most magnificent seacreatures. You start at the top floor and walk your way down through the different aquaria. Here are some impressions!

Colorful fish!

A closeup

Smiling fish:

This one was cool, with the weird shapes on its head:

There was a beautiful tank filled with these white floating squid:

I really loved this face :-p:

 

And then there were the bigger tanks, with huge sea creatures. We were there right around feeding time, so the big whale shark was eating his lunch:

This huge manta ray was floating around the aquarium, it reminded me almost of a spaceship! Only 4(!) aquaria in the world display this gigantic alien-like creature, and it was  a very impressive sight to see.

The dolphins were playing with the water :-)

This was also amazing, a huuuuge tank filled with thousands of little sardines that were swimming together in a swirling formation!

A little hiding lobster:

Giant crabs with long legs, really cute:

These fish were really cool, they were metallic, reflecting all the light in the tank!

My favourite creatures are always the jellyfish… they are so elegant and beautiful!!
