This Aquarium Has Been Transformed Into an Art Gallery!

Have you decided where to go for your Golden Week trip to Japan? If you’re planning to visit Osaka, I highly recommend NIFREL, a must-see spot even for locals! 📍 🌙 Created by the team behind Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan, NIFREL is designed with the concept of "sensory engagement," breaking the boundaries between traditional aquariums, zoos, and art galleries. The venue is divided into 8️⃣ themed zones, where lighting, music, and visuals weave together vivid encounters ❤️ Home to approximately 120 species and over 1,000 creatures, the exhibition space resembles an art museum. Most tanks are uncovered, allowing you to observe from various angles. There are also free-roaming animals inside, so please walk quietly and respect their natural rhythm 🤫 The unique "WONDER MOMENTS" zone captures fleeting beauty in nature through light and sound, creating an immersive experience 🌕 Don’t miss the café’s signature dessert, "Edible Water," which looks like a giant water droplet 💦—both stunning and intriguing, it’s a must-try! You can enter and exit the venue unlimited times on the same day, and nearby attractions like "Lalaport EXPOCITY" and "Expo ’70 Commemorative Park" are also worth exploring.
