It was raining, but everything is indoors, so the weather was not a problem.
Many visitors were enjoying the exhibits.

We finished our visit at the underground “Fish Laboratory,” where you can see fish scales and tiny plankton through microscopes.
The tiny creatures were moving, and they looked cute.
There are also hands-on studios, craft workshops, and fishing pond classes (lure and fly). The park has many fun activities.
In summer, the free outdoor water play area is very good for families.
