So I arrived at the Kyoto aquarium.


"Dolphins and splash !!" will be held at the aquarium on the second floorDolphin Stadiumis.


During breaks during which no program is taking place, you can see the dolphins who swim slowly in the pool.



For the new program, a huge water curtain of 15 meters wide was installed on the roof of the stadium.


"Dolphins and Splash !!" is a program to enjoy water with dolphins. Children took off their shoes and came in front of the pool with readiness to be soaked.


I will line up.


When reaching for the roof, water ran down from the gigantic water curtain.


Children get soaked immediately.


The water falling from the water curtain is designed to change the timing and amount of water according to the music.


Children seem to feel comfortable wearing cakes and water. It is a perfect program for hot summers as the whole body becomes soaked.


Looking from the rear of the stadium like this, you can see that the water curtain is installed from the end of the roof to the end and the water is running down.


The state that the water runs down from the huge water curtain according to the music is easy to understand when seeing the following movie.

There is also a cup for catching water flowing down from the water curtain and playing it.


Once the water curtain water stopped, dolphins appeared.


As dolphins come to the front of the swimming pool, you can observe dolphins at the nearby point.



When children manage the movements of the hands of the breeders, dolphins can rotate around their bodies or move the fillets to make the dolphin performer experience.


When the children lie down on the ground with the instructions of the breeders ......


Bathed in water from both the dolphin and the water curtain to drain.


Full body scattered state.


You can see how dolphins sprinkle water and children playing with soaking wet from the following movies.

Male adults are named "Eboshi" because their heads are stretching upwards high.
