Ancient DNA research involves deciphering minute traces of DNA remaining in the bones of ancient people excavated from ruins, and tracing the footsteps of humanity. In recent years, with the development of technology, it has made great strides, and it has become clear that the path that Homo sapiens walked was far more complicated than previously imagined. This exhibition uses ancient human bones and archaeological materials from all over Japan, as well as high-definition CG images of ancient human skulls, to convey the long path that the Japanese people have taken, as revealed by the latest research, and the message that the collective history has for the future.

We took the high-speed elevator up to the 350-meter-high observation deck and the 450-meter sky view corridor. The surrounding area is 360 degrees with large glass up to 5m. Standing there, looking at the distance from the bottom of the tower to 70 km, the clarity was amazing. The high-rise buildings in Tokyo City, the blocks, the ships in Putian River and the bridges in the river are clearly visible. In the corridors of the tubular glass structure, we taste the feeling of walking in the air. One of the floors was full glass, and I squatted there looking down at the ground without fear of heights at all.

There is an exhibition of Osamu Tezuka, Fire Bird. The place is not big, the scenery is OK, buy 100 yuan on site, only 70 yuan online, the cost performance is very high, not many people, it is worth a visit, friends who like quiet can go and have a look.

Apparently there won&#39;t be a dolphin show after the renovation, so I went to see it for my kids before then.The stage is small, so the distance is very close, and it&#39;s very impressive.The inside of the building is small and seems to be suitable for toddlers to elementary school students.

A Tokyo landmark, while certainly a bit of a departure from the postmodern Skytree, it&#39;s still worth a visit.

Ctrip was very convenient; you could just show the QR code after purchasing your ticket, eliminating the need to wait in line. They also posted the business hours, making them a great reference.

The Science Museum is small but exquisite, and it interprets the ultimate craftsmanship. The various specimens are very delicate and the categories are very detailed. It is the first time I have seen so many insect specimens, and the marine specimens are also dazzling. Children do not need tickets, it is free, and the overall feeling is very good.
