# Aquamarine Fukushima

The displays run from Fukushima's rivers and coast to the sea mammals and birds of northern waters. Tropical Asian wetlands, coral reefs and the currents off Fukushima follow. On the second floor a sushi counter sits in front of the big tank. Outside stands a children's building, Aquamarine Egg, with an otter area and its own outdoor zones. Inside it a small room lets toddlers watch a tank while playing with soft toys and books.

| Outside food allowed | Yes | You may bring a packed lunch and eat it on the 1F south terrace, in the outdoor plaza or at Jabujabu Meguri-no-umi.
