All the details about your upcoming adventure in one place
Escape the bustling streets of Tokyo and ascend to the 5th and 6th floors of Tokyo Skytree Town for an aquarium experience unlike any other. Sumida Aquarium is not merely a collection of tanks; it is a sophisticated aquatic museum designed to stimulate the senses. Renowned for its 'Edorium' goldfish display that blends traditional Edo culture with modern design, and the mesmerizing 'Big Schale' jellyfish basin, this facility redefines the aquarium concept. Visitors can witness the world's first natural aquascapes designed by Takashi Amano, where nature is encapsulated in perfect harmony. With an open-flow layout that encourages wandering, the aroma of calming essential oils, and soft ambient music, it feels more like an exclusive art gallery than a traditional zoo.

Real experiences from real travelers
The jellyfish area is absolutely stunning. It feels like a dream world. The ticket process was super easy, scanned right from my phone.
Unlike typical aquariums. Very stylish. The Amano tanks are a masterpiece of aquascaping. A bit crowded on weekends.
My children loved the penguins! The open tank allows you to see them so close. Clean, safe, and the cafe has cute penguin donuts.
We combined this with the Skytree observation deck. Buying the combo ticket online saved us about 30 minutes of queuing.
I loved the aroma and the music. It's a small aquarium but very high quality. The goldfish exhibit is very unique to Japan.
Caught the feeding time at 1:30 PM. Very entertaining to watch the keepers interact with the penguins. Highly recommend.
It is beautiful but a bit expensive for the size. However, the location inside Solamachi makes it very convenient.
The most beautiful aquarium tanks I've ever seen. The natural planted tanks are world-class. A must-see for hobbyists.
