Shanghai Ocean Aquarium

Located next to the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai's bustling financial district of Lujiazui, Shanghai Ocean Aquarium is the largest aquarium in Shanghai, and one of the biggest in Asia. SOA is home to more than 15,000 marine animals comprising 450 unique species from five continents and four oceans.

SOA is divided into nine distinct thematic zones, designed to replicate nine different habitats as closely as possible. The SOA “around the world” underwater journey begins at the Yangtze River in China, before moving on to the amazing flooded forests of the Amazon in South America. Around the corner, find yourselves in the mangroves and billabongs of Australia before meandering through the ancient rivers of Africa. After touring the humid rain-forests of Southeast Asia, prepare for a change of weather and brave the icy Antarctic waters, then descend from sandy shores to the mysterious depths of the ocean. Remember to look out for these highlights: the Chinese Sturgeon, Giant Salamander, Electric Eels, Spotted Seals, Weedy Sea-dragons, Jellyfish, Sand Tiger Sharks and more! Rounding off this amazing underwater world tour, visitors can view the world's first “China Zone”, housing endangered Chinese aquatic animals from the Yangtze River, along with the longest underwater viewing tunnel in the world, where marine animals swim right above visitors’ heads.

Acrobatics Show

Watching the amazing acrobatics show from 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM can not be missed when exploring the city of Shanghai.
