The only aquarium in Yamagata prefecture. The appearance of various jellyfish floating is fantastic and soothing. In particular, the aquarium "Jellyfish Dream Theater" where about 10,000 moon jellyfish float is a masterpiece! It is a recommended sightseeing spot in Yamagata because it is full of attractions other than jellyfish such as sea lion shows and the admission fee is 1000 yen, which is a reasonable price. It is crowded on Saturdays and Sundays, so it is recommended to visit on weekdays or at the same time as the museum opens at 9 am.

It used to be a flourishing place for mining silver, and recently it is a popular hot spring resort where you can enjoy the old townscape. I was impressed by the beautiful cityscape more than I expected. Even if you don't stay, the car park is located about 5 minutes walk from the old town.
