Tempozan, out on the bay, is where Osaka puts its family attractions, starting with the Kaiyukan aquarium, where a whale shark circles a tank several floors deep. The giant Ferris wheel is right beside it. Add a harbour cruise on a replica of the Santa Maria if the weather’s good.
Plan your Kaiyukan visit with tips on the whale shark tank, evening lighting, weekday entry, crowds, transit, and how long to allow.
