Each scene incorporates scents, ambient sounds, dynamic lighting, and video effects to further enhance the sense of immersion, making the space itself an exhibit. The wide variety of creatures and diverse exhibition presentations provide creative stimulation and surprise, as well as opportunities for new discoveries and learning.

The same floor will also house the Aqua Alive Gallery, which can be viewed and used without paying an admission fee, as well as a takeout cafe and museum shop, creating an environment where visitors can feel free to drop in as many times as they like.
