Kuroshio Sea (2nd Largest Aquarium Tank in the World)

"The main tank called the 'Kuroshio Sea' holds 7,500-cubic meters (1,981,290 gallons) of water and features the world's second largest acrylic glass panel, measuring 8.2 meters by 22.5 meters with a thickness of 60 centimeters. Whale sharks and manta rays are kept amongst many other fish species in the main tank."

I lived on Okinawa for a couple of years. I'd love to go back just to see this. Freakin' awesome.

Photos: World Sand Sculpture Festival 2009

Not only do they have the Sapporo Snow Festival in Japan, it turns out they have World Sand Sculpture Festival as well. Awesome.

I'm guessing they don't need to worry about the tide coming in and wrecking everything.
