But then again, penguins and the Sumida Aquarium have always played by their own rules. Located on the 5th and 6th floors of Tokyo Skytree Town, this space has long […]

We had a change of plans due to the cold wet weather and decided to give the aquarium a visit. We are so happy we got to experience this wonderful place. The reviews mentioned that it is quite small but we thought it was a good size and the design of the spaces and displays was outstanding. We were mesmorised by the displays and captivated but the penguins and seals. The cafe had fun themed drinks and snacks that we all appreciated. The visit was a hit with all of us- parents and 10 & 13 year old. Definitely worth a visit!

Layout of Sumida Aquarium not like many others which is cramped. Sumida is very open planned and well planned. Skytree decks are very well designed and the entry n exits are planned well

The view from the skytree and the seals at the auarium. Tickets booking process was easy and convenient except the fact that the qr-codes for the activities were at the far end of the received e-mail and it took a bit time to find them there.

The views from the tower (although we could only see it from a height of 350 meters because it was cloudy at 450 meters). The aquarium is not very big but interesting
