After being completely mesmerized by this video, I have made it my personal mission to visit the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium.

It’s apparently the second largest in the world, next to the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta and boasts this impressive Kuroshio Sea display that makes you feel as if you’re watching an underwater mural come to life—complete with whale sharks!

You probably already know that I like aquariums and if you’d like the same eye-widening experience I’ve had (thanks to multiple viewings), then here’s what you should do:

1. Click play
2. Turn up the volume
3. Go full screen for the full effect
4. Lather, rinse, repeat

Trust me. I know what I’m doing here.

This video of sand animation had already reached two million views when I saw it about a month ago and I didn’t post it because I figured it had made the rounds on the internets. But everyone I’ve shared it with has experienced it for the first time and been equally entranced with it as I was—and still am.

Then I realized that it doesn’t matter how old this clip is or whether it’s already been seen. I’ve watched it no less than a dozen times and it mesmerizes me each time, casting a sensory spell that makes me feel like I’m floating as I watch this live masterpiece unfold. It’s truly one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.

Don’t let the eight-minute length daunt you, and you will be rewarded. Trust me.
