NIFREL, located in Expo City, Suita City, Osaka Prefecture, is a new type of museum—neither an aquarium nor a zoo—based on the concept of "touching the senses." Here, vibrantly colored fish and uniquely shaped creatures are exhibited like works of art. Divided into seven zones, each themed, visitors can experience the individual personalities of the creatures up close.

NIFREL's greatest appeal is its unique exhibit method. Instead of using standard aquariums, the exhibits utilize the entire space, allowing visitors to observe the creatures moving freely. In particular, in the "Touch the Movement" zone, home to white tigers and crocodiles, there are no partitions between the animals, making their dynamic presence truly awe-inspiring.

NIFREL is not just a place to see the creatures; it's a place where you can experience their individual personalities and the beauty of nature. Combine it with the neighboring Expo Commemoration Park and LaLaport EXPOCITY to make this a recommended sightseeing spot where you can spend the whole day.

[Fun Fact]
The name "NIFREL" comes from the word "touching."
