Address
No. 2 Laiyang Road, Shinan, inside Lu Xun Park beside the sea promenade

An old aquarium on the Lu Xun Park waterfront, known for a tunnel where sharks and rays glide overhead. Separate halls cover the South Pole, freshwater fish, endangered species and specimens, with timed shows during the day. A solid rainy-day plan, and when you come out you are straight on the sea promenade.
