Hachinohe Aquarium, Marine Science hall (Mariento)


this place is near the port of hachinohe and fishing place. It was hard to find the place at first, it was shown the straight road to here on the map, we found out this is not the straight place so needed to make few wrong trips to here.

Direction
1. Take a hahcinohe express toll road. ( to get to the hachinohe toll road, take the main fate or POL gate. If you take POL gate, go straight to universe and homac. Keep going straight and follow the sign of Hachinohe express lane. There will be a small bridge and the toll gate is right before the bridge.)

2. Exit at Hachinohe North (Hachinohe KITA) and make a right turn to be at the route 45

3. Take a left turn at the big transaction (follow the sign of central hachinohe or port of hachinohe, don't take the way to NANGO)

4. If you are on the right way, you will be on the route 1, when you see the route 1 keep go straight to port of hachinohe, at the end of route 1 make a right turn. there will be a gas station on your left. 

5. keep going straight untill the almost the end of the street, and make a right turn when you see the big building written on the black Japanese Kangi (super complected words) and keep going straight until you see the blue building written on Japanese words (Mariento) 

*If you're lost, Ask where is the Mariento. Everyone will know what mariento is but won't know Hachinohe Aquarium..





This small aquarium cost 300 yen per adult. It has cool looking fishes and some more but kind of disappointing place if you imagine of okinawa aquarium.. It's like a small fish tank at somebody's house. The ocean was pretty cool and great trip to see the other side of hachinohe.

Toll fare was 350 yen to hachinohe. make sure that you get off at the right exit there won't be any exit for a while after hachinohe central or kita.
