The Okinawa Churaumi is the world’s second largest aquarium and part of the Ocean Aquarium Expo Park located in Motobu, Okinawa, Japan.
The main tank holds 7,500-cubic meters (1,981,290 gallons) of water. The aquarium has three theme zones:
1) The giant, warm Black Current (“Kuroshio”)
2) Living coral reefs
3) The two deep sea areas located on each side of the Ryukyu Islands.
Entering from the 4rth floor entrance, visitors discover the sea of corals. The Kuroshio (the Japan Current) zone has the world’s largest acrylic panoramic window (60cm or 23.62in. thick/8.2m or 26.9ft. high/22.5m or 73.81ft. long) of the sea tank, enclosing 7,500 tons of water.
This magnificent aquarium is not only awesome in size, there is also the deep-sea world zone with its luminescent living creatures. A total underwater experience while staying on the ground!
