Beijing Aquarium

Beijing currently has three larger aquariums. The ideal way to visit the Zoo Aquarium is to park near the north gate. Tickets are a bit pricey at 165 yuan, though it seems only certain professions get half-price admission. It&#39;s not too large, and upon entering, you&#39;re plunged into a vibrant blue wonderland. Beyond the glass, schools of shimmering silver-scaled fish rehearse mysterious formations, gathering and dispersing like trained soldiers. Jellyfish are particularly cunning, launching themselves into space like miniature rockets by expanding and contracting their umbrella-like bodies. Their transparent bodies, their internal organs clearly visible, make one wonder if they were glassblown artifacts. As the lights change, the jellyfish flicker from vibrant crimson to indigo, more cunning than a stage face-changing artist.
The underwater tunnel is truly magical. Manta rays, their enormous bat wings spread, swoop overhead, casting fleeting shadows. Sharks, their white teeth bared, stalk the water, but through the glass, it&#39;s hard to tell who&#39;s admiring whom. The Beluga whale aquarium was under renovations this time. I&#39;d probably been bored by the constant screaming, perhaps missing the ocean and my loved ones. There were regular seal shows near the entrance. Small bags of fish food were available at the entrance for 20 yuan. It was packed in the summer, and I heard there were night shows. Haichang Park was being built in the future, giving Beijing another ocean world.

I experienced the Water Cube and it was really fun. The Water Cube is a large water park with a variety of water rides. My favorite is its water slide, which is very fast and exciting.

The advantage of the Water Cube is that its facilities are very complete and suitable for visitors of all ages. In addition, the environment of the Water Cube is very clean and the staff is very friendly, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Overall, the Water Cube is a very recommended water park. If you like water activities, then the Water Cube is definitely a place not to be missed. I strongly recommend everyone to experience the fun of the Water Cube.
