Toba Aquarium

Actually, all aquariums are pretty much the same: there are fluorescent fish tanks, colorful poison frogs from South America, American flamingos, capybaras, and more. The aquarium is laid out in a long, linear format. After entering the building, you can freely walk right or left, unlike typical exhibits where there are separate paths for the "shunro" and "kiro" paths. The sea lion and walrus feedings and performances take place approximately every half hour to an hour. There are several deliberate missteps during the performances to keep children on their toes, and everyone can enjoy watching the performances a few times. There will be sighs of disappointment, but the last successful attempt will bring a roar of applause from the audience. The whole thing is well-coordinated, creating a lot of emotional value and making it quite entertaining. Kitchen Takama is a family-run restaurant. From the first floor, you'll see enticing food models beckoning you to order. Hidden behind the fried shrimp curry rice are three tamagoyaki and two small fried chicken balls (I haven't eaten meat in years, so I thought leaving them out would be disrespectful to the restaurant, but that's a mistake). The rice is generous and filling, and afterward, order the pudding and fresh cream ice cream—it's fantastic! PS: The staff was friendly, but it didn't seem to be air-conditioned, using a fan and water cooling system.
