Japan's Largest Goldfish Museum | Nara Kingyo Museum #japantravel #japan #goldfish #museum

Japan’s largest goldfish museum is born in Nara Prefecture, one of Japan’s Top 3 goldfish cultivation areas. The entire museum is based on the concept of “goldfish”, with displays created by today’s leading artists. Here you can experience experiments only available here—projection mapping, flowers, terrariums, and mirror balls. The stars are the goldfish, which range from familiar to rare species, all raised in Yamatokoriyama City. Approx. 3,000 goldfish swim gracefully and beautifully around the aquariums as if floating along. Enjoy “soothing”, “surprising”, and “impressive” spaces that you can experience through the five senses as befitting an “entertainment aquarium” transcending the concept of a “goldfish museum”.
