Chitose Salmon Aquarium Admission E-Ticket

The Chitose Aquarium – Salmon Hometown in Chitose City, Hokkaido, is a unique facility in Japan where visitors can learn about ecosystems centered around salmon and other freshwater fish. Its massive freshwater tank, about 5 meters deep and holding 300 tons of water, is home to rare species such as the Japanese huchen (Ito) and Siberian sturgeon, swimming gracefully in a vast space. One of the highlights is the Underwater Observation Zone, which allows visitors to view a natural river through glass panels. Here, you can witness the lives of various fish as they change with the seasons. In spring, young salmon leave the river of their birth and head out to the wide ocean. In summer, you can watch dramatic spawning scenes of dace. And in autumn, schools of salmon can be seen swimming upstream toward their spawning grounds.
