It was my first time to visit Oita but had some enough time I decide to go to Oita marine Palace aquarium “Umitamago”.
If you have a time after visiting to Yufuin onsen, Beppu onsen & Beppu jigoku trip which is the famous sightseeing place in Oit, why not consider to go to Oita aquarium.
Honestly I really like aquarium but will report the countryside aquarium was nice or not in this article.
If you are intrested to aquarium or looking for some place to sightseeing in Oita this can be helpful for you.

Umitamago is what kind of aquarium？
On 1964 it has open as Oita ecology aquarium marine palace and on 2004 it reborn at Oita marine palace aquqrium Umitamago.
It is located along the Beppu by and the aquarium concept is “the aquarium to become friendly with animals”. Base on the info given by the aquarium there they are doing several events and show so you can describe that they are following thier nice concept.
