After an amazing journey through the ocean it’s time to take a look at how life looks in rivers around the world. Are you prepared for Waterfront Journey in Sunshine Aquarium?

Would you like to see a shark, penguin, ocean sunfish, giant octopus and dyeing dart frog on the rooftop of a skyscraper in the middle of the city? Just go to Sunshine City Aquarium then! Located in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, it's really a place worth seeing.

Just a short movie, a whole coverage will be posted soon!

Miso soup is probably the most popular dish in Japan (yes I know, you were expecting sushi, but surprise!). It’s added as a side dish to almost every type of lunch meal, it can also be a part of breakfast and supper. Bonus: it may be prepared in around 10 minutes, so try it! Once again this is not an original Japanese recipe, this is a really easy, basic “Cooking 101” recipe.

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons of dashi
3 cups of water (3x 250 ml)
2,5 spoons of miso paste
65g tofu
1 spoon of dried seaweed
slices of green onion

Preparation:

1. Chop seaweed into small parts and cut tofu into cubes.
   
2. Boil water in a pot. Add dashi. Whisk until it dissolve.
   
3. Lower the heat and add tofu and seaweed.
   
4. Put miso paste into a bowl or ladle. Add a little of the dashi and whisk until it becomes smooth. 
   
5. Add miso to the soup and boil a short while on lowest heat.
   
6. Add slices of green onion and boil a little. 
   
7. Serve immediately.

“Almost!” says another person while hitting the machine with irritation, only to put more coins in it just a second later. Welcome to Game Arcades! They are very popular in Japan and not hard to find. Usually there are tall buildings, with at least 5 floors, but it’s possible to find smaller ones inside department stores. Take a look at this fun place, full of people wishing that maybe next time they will be lucky.
