The newly opened underwater tunnel and lighting, combined with photos, are super beautiful and dreamy. It feels like being in the underwater world. The jellyfish park is very beautiful, and we have been lying in front of the glass cover for a long time. The jellyfish park also has a jellyfish breeding room, and parents with baby colors can book tickets in advance to enter and see the penguin park. I was really shocked to see so many penguins. There is also a pool next to it for other swimmers. It's so cute.! The Happy Feet 4D movie in Penguin Park is 12 minutes long, with the feeling of finding childhood with children. The brain was originally excited to watch and need it, but it was actually taken over by Penguin Park. There are also big stickers, 10 or 3 rings, remember to bring your bank card! I can't use my phone to swipe. Personally, I feel that the aquarium is really a perfect place for couples to date or family outings"Southbank.Melbourne Central Business District851m from downtownHighlights: The Melbourne Aquarium is located on the banks of the Yarra River. It's a circular structure decked out in a blue-white color scheme. The aquarium has many exciting areas to explore for an unforgettable travel experience. It's home to Australia's massive Australian saltwater crocodiles, a rich variety of seahorse and sea dragon species as well as king and gentoo penguins. The idea of having a bit of fun with huge sea turtles and hide and seek with Nemo is no fantasy here. You can even take a transparent glass bottom boat for an adventure behind the curtain while traveling back and forth on the water yourself in search of excitement. △ Watch and feed jellyfish up close △ Go behind the scenes to see how penguins live △ Watch divers dance with fishShow Less - 8.54.6/5289 ReviewFrom7.85

The replica sets were stunning and the items from the wreckage were very well preserved and thought provoking. There was ample information within each section, and giving everyone a person from the ship itself was quite emotional for some people.The exhibit is fairly priced for what you get to experience, but I did feel sorry for some parents whose kids were bored and complaining to them"Carlton1.4km from downtownHighlights: The Melbourne Museum was built in July 1996 and officially opened to the public in November 2000. It is the largest and innovative museum in the southern hemisphere. It is located in Carlton Gardens with the Royal Exhibition Hall. 1. Regional introduction The museum has three floors.

The style of the style museum is very modern, which forms a strong contrast with the classical style of the Royal Exhibition Hall next to it. In addition to creating a visual effect, the metal frame and glass curtain wall also draw more natural light into the public spaces of the pavilion. You will see that the staff in the museum are wearing brightly colored work clothes, exuding a strong aboriginal cultural style, which contrasts with the avant-garde architectural form.Show Less - 7.74.5/5323 ReviewFrom20.62based on 6682 reviews"A very good zoo close to the city, the tram is direct, the animal variety is relatively complete, the kangaroo koala is very cute, and the mental state is much better than the animals in the domestic zoo.

It was very large and there were a lot of green plants. Maybe it was because of autumn. A lot of flowers withered, but the leaves were still green. There are a lot of flowers and plants that have not been seen. I saw the other side of the flower.
