 On July 15th, the annual "Sony Aquarium" opened at Ginza Sony Building (Ginza 5) under the supervision of the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium.

The event has been held almost every year since the opening of the building in 1966 (Showa 41), and is now one of the summer traditions of Ginza.

Date: July 15-August 28 (Outdoor aquariums can be viewed until 23:00)

The concept of this year, which marks the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Sony Building, is "Education," a synthetic word that represents the fusion of education and entertainment. There are hands-on events where you can learn about Okinawan nature and creatures through aquarium displays and images that reproduce the Okinawa Churaumi ecosystem.

This year, Sony Square, an outdoor event space facing the Sukiyabashi intersection, has a large 14-ton aquarium, recreating the world of creatures living in the beautiful coral reef sea.

I heard that about 500 fish of 23 types, including the grouper's friend "Tamakai" and the 1-meter-long "Fake Goishi Utsubo" will appear sequentially.

Feeding is performed twice a day (11:30-17:30-17:30-30 minutes each time), every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday (13:30-, 14:30-, 15:30-, 16:30-, 18:30-18:30-15 minutes each time) The Okinawa Aquarium explains the Okinawa Aquarium.

You can experience the charm of "Okinawa Churaumi" which is cool to your eyes.
