Sunpiazza Aquaruim, Public aquarium in Shinsapporo Arc City Sunpiazza complex, Japan.
Sunpiazza Aquarium is a public aquarium in the Shinsapporo Arc City shopping and leisure complex in Sapporo. It contains numerous tanks displaying tropical fish and marine species from Hokkaido's cold waters.
The aquarium opened in 1982 as part of a large commercial development project in the Atsubetsuchūō district. Its creation reflected Sapporo's growth as a modern business hub during that period.
The facility demonstrates Japanese approaches to marine care through daily demonstrations and observation opportunities. Visitors see how local waters are managed and protected.
The facility is a five-minute walk from Shin Sapporo subway station and is easy to reach. The daily operating hours allow flexible visits based on your schedule.
A special highlight is the multiple penguin species in a dedicated area where they can be observed throughout the year. These cold-water creatures are especially popular with visitors.
