Did you know that the biggest fish tank in the whole world is in Okinawa? And that there are three whale sharks--the largest and one of the rarest fish species known to man--in that gigantic tank? The third was just unveiled yesterday. Pretty crazy!
Check out this AP video, which really gives you an idea of how gynormous and awesome this creature is.

I have been there it is so nice. You can eat at a table that is right next to the the glass at this tank. It is also a botanical garden and a history site. You can walk in to history houses and huts. It was so cool and you can take pictures anywhere in the buildings. I think it was only 900¥ for the garden and 1200¥ for the tanks.
