Tropical Sundome

Japans largest indoor water park; a grand site indeed. It is like a little bit of tropical paradise preserved in time among the snowy expanse the world had become. The building itself is located on the outskirts of the city, being built as a preserve when the winter first showed signs of not letting up. Covering at least 500 acres this large sun dome has a clear roof made to create that lovely green house temperature. The temperature ranging from the high 70's to 90's. This is the largest public nature sanctuary in the world; also conveniently turned into a water park. The building has two levels, at the entrance you have rows and rows of lockers, and changing rooms. This is the upper level of the park and only takes up a small section of the building. This level is also lined with sit down restaurants, and gift shops. Through large sliding glass doors lies the real attraction, a tropical paradise as far as the eye can see. Sounds of birds of all kinds echo over the cheesy tropical music that play from hidden speakers around the park.
