Beijing Aquarium
Located within the Beijing Zoo, the Beijing Aquarium is the
world's largest inland aquarium. It's an absolute must see with
features such as an imaginative Amazon rainforest, complete with
piranha, as well as an exquisite shark aquarium where the very
brave can plunge into the tank with these infamous predators.
Families flock to see the dolphin shows at 11am and 3pm and a boat
from the canal south of the aquarium runs to the Summer Palace,
giving visitors the opportunity to sightsee while en route to the
attraction.
