[Ako] The Marine Science Museum Salt Gallery is a must-see

The museum displays the history of salt and humankind, giant rock salt from around the world, salt crystals, and more. A soft-shelled turtle was swimming in the fish tank in the Chikusa River. This is a science museum that is fitting for Ako, the town of salt, where you can learn about the ocean and salt. It is located in a corner of Ako Seaside Park. It is recommended for family trips.
