 |
|
|

This aquarium is on the 10th floor of the 40 meter high World Import Mart. The aquarium plays host to fish, insects, birds, and mammals, all within their own ecosystems and the highlight of many a visit to the aquarium comes when the fish are fed and the sea lions play freely.

With the enormous Seibu Department Store at the east exit of JR Ikebukuro station and the similarly large Tobu Department Store at the west exit, shoppers can spend hours of enjoyment simply browsing through the myriad of items on sale in both stores.

Kishimojin (Goddess of children) |
 |
|
|
 |
 |
|
When you walk south from the Ikebukuro area you will soon find yourself in the historic area of Zoshigaya. A stroll along streets lined with the houses of a bygone era, small temples and the locally famous Kishimojin Temple provides for a most pleasant experience. The area can also be reached following a short walk from Kishibojin Station on the Toden Street Car Line after passing through an avenue of zelkova trees, many of which are over 400 years old.
