Miyajima Aquarium
Miyajima Aquarium is one of the leading aquariums in the Chugoku region, featuring about 350 species and over 13,000 specimens primarily from the Seto Inland Sea. It was renovated and reopened in 2011 with a basic philosophy of "healing" and "interaction," providing participatory and experiential exhibits that allow visitors to feel a close connection to marine life. The aquarium is particularly popular for its "Setouchi Whale," the finless porpoise, and visitors can also enjoy interactive experiences with otters and penguins. It is an ideal spot to visit alongside sightseeing in Miyajima.
