SEA LIFE Nagoya

SEA LIFE Nagoya is a hands-on aquarium located in the LEGOLAND® Japan Hotel, letting you "see, touch, and learn". SEA LIFE was created with the intent of sparking in children an interest in the ocean by touching its creatures and learning about their ways of life at locations in over 50 places around the world. It is divided into 11 zones with distinct themes. Going through a tunnel, you find yourself in lavishly colorful worlds such as that of the Japanese fairy tale zone of Urashima Taro's visit to the dragon's underwater palace, a zone where you proceed through a sunken ship, a tropical ocean zone with tons of rays swimming all around, a zone in which you can touch inhabitants of the sea, and more.

Megrass Garden Nagoya

Megrass Garden Nagoya is a garden facility located along the coast in Minato Ward, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture. The grounds consist of six beautiful zones with a pleasant, layered design, where a “relay of flowers” unfolds throughout the year. In the special space “Secret Garden,” open only in spring, visitors can enjoy an immersive experience surrounded by flowers and appreciate the garden as if viewing art... Along with proposing this new kind of value, we hope to bring many moving experiences to all who visit through the power of plants. A “garden,” where plants live, is a place of constant change—eternally unfinished. From the fresh first year after its renewal opening to the second and third years beyond, we aim to create a next-generation garden that “continues to evolve,” so that its character deepens ever more richly each time the seasons turn.
