I paid RM46 for an admission ticket. It's my second visit. The first being with hubs and now, with a relative. We walked in. It was noisy with schoolchildren. I found the area too small to be accommodating large numbers of persons visiting at the same time. The place could have been better designed if it was intended for buses of people. Just saying.
My two cents out of the way, I was excited to be blessed with the opportunity see underwater creatures up close.

We walked through a passageway lined with aquariums housing various small fish.

The oceanarium is a glass tube tunnel with a travelator. We saw sharks, sting rays and many large sea animals swimming by. This, to me, was the best part of Aquaria.

Below are some of the other underwater creatures I saw along the way.

Pot bellied seahorse? Noooo.. what an unflattering name.

Is anyone thinking of having Lobster Thermidor for dinner after seeing this?

We were surprised to see a virtual piano close to the exit. My cousin, who's a musician/singer, couldn't resist trying it out. I didn't bother looking for information as to what it was for but now I wish I had! That's the thing with delayed curiosity.

There was also a little corner dedicated to plants.

I should mention that Aquaria KLCC has the bestest staff stationed around every corner. They were down-to-earth friendly and proactively helpful. Can't fault a nice smile and a good hello.
That ends my day out with my lovely cousin. That said, where are you most likely to take visiting relatives?
Nice. My kids would love to visit here. But tickets quite pricey.
ReplyDeleteOooh. The eel hiding in the bed.
Yes, I felt the admission tickets could have been cheaper. I can imagine what it'll cost to bring a family here. Phew!
DeleteI would love to visit this place. The last one I have visited was in Langkawi.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Langkawi has something like this. Marking it on my must-visit list!
DeleteSo fascinating and beautiful, Sharon! I enjoyed the video, too! Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it, Linda. I enjoyed the experience. It was a great way to relax :D
DeleteThe admission ticket, the price, is it the same for Malaysian and foreigner or they charge different price?
ReplyDeleteRM64 (adult). Much more expensive :|
DeleteNice to bring kids. Those days when I used to walk to KLCC sure pass through Aquaria. Always full of school kids especially during school holidays. But personally..me...so 'paiseh' never go into Aquaria. WTH!
ReplyDeleteHaha....! But it is pricey so I can understand! ^.^
DeleteHave not been there yet.
ReplyDeleteThe kids will love it! ;)
DeleteThe underwater world is so magical...
ReplyDeleteI agree. It is a place of wonder. :)
DeleteGosh, I haven't stepped into an aquarium for years....... xoxo
ReplyDeleteIt's not something I would go to often ..seeing how expensive tickets are ;P
ReplyDeleteI never step into Aquaria KLCC even though it has been there for many years
ReplyDeleteI am bit surprised when you said the admission is RM46 for an adult
It is really pricey for me...
