点评:We've been to a lot of aquarium's and this is up there with the best!
Tickets are not cheap, but they have many things to see so in my opinion worth visiting.
The whole aquarium is very organised and has different exhibits mostly off the central atrium, which makes navigating very easily as enter and finish a lot of the exhibits back in the same area.
Each exhibit is themed different, and contains different types of fish/sea life.
Some of the tanks (and fish!) are huge, and all the animals are signed well.
There are also a lot of staff around who are happy to answer questions about what you see in the tanks.
They have a dolphin show and a sea lion show. Once you have tickets you can reserve seats for a specific show time, although on the day we visited it wasn't that busy, but I guess on some days you could miss out if you didn't reserve a seat.
Both shows were very impressive and produced well, with a mix of animal displays as well as informative information (but done in a non-boring way!)
(Impressive how big the dolphin show seating area is considering it's all inside the aquarium building!)
They also have a few areas where you can touch some animals (sting ray, mini sharks) which is great fun. Like all the other exhibits there was staff around giving information on the animals and ensuring that guests knew how to touch the animals.
Plenty of very clean restrooms dotted around, as well as tables/benches to sit on. They are more than happy if you bring your own food in to eat (although not in the exhibit areas which is fair enough)
We spent 5 hours here, but could easily have done everything again and been there for longer if we weren't tired or had other plans for the rest of the day.
Highly highly recommend this aquarium, and we will be back next time we're in Atlanta.
Note - Make sure you plan to "Georgia Aquarium" and not "Atlanta Aquarium". We nearly ended up in completely the wrong place, as Atlanta Aquarium is a fish shop for home tanks.
翻译:我们去过很多水族馆,这家绝对是其中最棒的之一!
门票虽然不便宜,但里面有很多东西可看,所以我觉得非常值得一去。
整个水族馆布局井然有序,不同的展区大多围绕着中央中庭分布,这样一来,参观起来就非常方便,因为很多展区都在同一个区域内。
每个展区都有不同的主题,展示着不同种类的鱼类和海洋生物。
有些水族箱(以及鱼!)非常巨大,而且所有动物都有清晰的标识。
馆内有很多工作人员,他们很乐意解答你关于水族箱里生物的问题。
这里有海豚表演和海狮表演。买票后可以预订特定场次的座位,虽然我们去的那天人不多,但我想有些时候如果没有预订座位,可能就看不到表演了。
两场表演都非常精彩,制作精良,既有动物展示,又有丰富的科普信息(而且一点也不枯燥!)。
(考虑到海豚表演的座位区都在水族馆内,真是令人印象深刻!)
这里还有一些可以触摸动物的区域(比如鳐鱼、迷你鲨鱼),非常有趣。和其他展区一样,工作人员会讲解动物知识,并确保游客知道如何触摸动物。
馆内有很多非常干净的洗手间,还有桌椅可以休息。他们非常欢迎游客自带食物(当然,不能在展区内用餐,这很合理)。
我们在这里待了5个小时,但如果我们不累或者当天还有其他安排,我们完全可以再玩一遍,待更久。
强烈推荐这家水族馆,下次来亚特兰大我们一定还会再来。
注意——请务必前往“佐治亚水族馆”(Georgia Aquarium),而不是“亚特兰大水族馆”(Atlanta Aquarium)。我们差点就去错了地方,因为亚特兰大水族馆是一家出售家用鱼缸的鱼店。
