Full Description

Located on the rooftop of the Sunshine City World Import Mart Building in Ikebukuro, Sunshine Aquarium offers a refreshing escape from Tokyo’s fast-paced atmosphere. Built around the theme of “an oasis in the sky,” this aquarium features a mix of serene water environments and lush greenery that give the venue a tropical resort-like vibe.

Among its standout attractions is the “Penguins in the Sky” tank—an innovative overhead exhibit that lets visitors observe penguins swimming high above with the city skyline in the background, creating the illusion that they’re flying.

The aquarium also hosts an impressive variety of marine life, including sea otters, seals, jellyfish, rays, and tropical fish, spread across indoor and outdoor zones. Whether you’re exploring with kids, on a date, or traveling solo, this is a must-visit destination in Tokyo.
