Underwater park - Kaichu Koen

Japanese: 海中公園 - かいちゅうこうえん
Underwater park - Kaichu Koen
A park that focuses on underwater scenery, and aims to explore the scenery above and below sea level, as well as for academic observation and nature conservation. In 1954, Australia designated the east coast of Queensland as the world's first underwater park, and in 1962, the first World National Parks Congress adopted a recommendation that each country should establish its own underwater park. In Japan, following the revision of the Natural Parks Act in 1970, the Minister of the Environment Agency designates the marine areas of national parks and quasi-national parks.
