Make the most of your visit

Pokémon Center MEGA TOKYO · alpa 2F

Find the official Pokémon shop, Pokémon Card Station and Pokémon GO Lab. Check the shop’s current notices before travelling for a specific product or event.

Choose one paid attraction

Sunshine Aquarium, SUNSHINE 60 OBSERVATORY TENBOU-PARK and NAMJATOWN offer different ways to extend your visit. Each has its own ticket; an aquarium ticket does not include the others.

Plan for breaks

Use the complex’s food options and family facilities between stops. Keep time for queues and allow children to set the pace.

Go your own way

From Higashi-Ikebukuro Station, follow the Sunshine City underground passage toward exits 6–7. From Ikebukuro Station exit 35, walk along Sunshine 60 Street to the complex.

Before you go

Time to allow
2–4 hours. Our planning estimate, not a guaranteed tour duration.
Visiting with children
The complex provides baby rooms, changing facilities and stroller services. Individual attractions have separate admission and age conditions; check the ticket for each child.
If it rains
Shopping and many attractions are indoors. The underground approach from Higashi-Ikebukuro is useful in rain. The aquarium also has an outdoor rooftop area; do not expect every exhibit to be sheltered.
Language
English visitor information and multilingual assistance are available. Event and attraction languages vary.
