Story & Recommendation
Enjoyable collaboration of talented dolphins and huge water curtains in Kyoto Aquarium in summer
You may probably know that the summer in Kyoto is very hot and humid. However, if you visit Kyoto Aquarium from July 23rd to August 31st which is regarded as the hottest summer period in Kyoto, you will surely feel cool with water attractions and beautiful nighttime illuminations with various sea and freshwater animals. Please visit Kyoto Aquarium to blow off the summer heat with water attractions and visionary illuminations!
In addition to "Splash with dolphins!!", "Night aquarium of summer (Natsuno yoruno suizokukan)" will be held at night. During the event period, the regular closing time expands to 8pm (8:30am to 9pm from August 13th to 15th), and nighttime events such as dolphin performance called “Dolphin night LIVE” with visionary and dynamic illuminations, various kinds of water curtains called “aqua sign” are held.
