Siam Ocean World, the 10,000-square-metre world-class aquarium
occupying two levels of Siam Paragon, Bangkok's newest upscale shopping
destination, is billed as the largest aquarium in Southeast Asia.
The project, which includes a 2.8 million litre Oceanarium, represents
a significant investment of US$30 million by Oceanis Australia Group,
the world's largest aquarium owner and operator (ranked by number
of customers and volume of displays) with more than 15 years experience
in the aquarium business.
The aquarium has the capacity to hold more than 4 million litres
of water (equivalent to 3 Olympic swimming pools) and is described
as "Thailand's first and Southeast Asia's biggest aquatic education
and entertainment centre". It showcases more than 30,000 marine
animals and as many as 400 aquatic species. These include Seals,
Blue Ringed Octopus, Ragged-tooth sharks, Stingrays, Leafy Sea Dragons,
Giant Spider Crabs and others.
The journey through Siam Ocean World will take you through seven
different zones:
* Weird and Wonderful
