Lani-at-aquariumTIPS:

  • Check out the aquarium website: http://www.chiangmaiaquarium.com/ for some basic information.
  • The aquarium is located a good distance from the zoo entrance, I’d recommend taking the free tram up the hill.
  • To catch a ride back into town, get out on Huey Kaew (the main road). Red trucks will be parked on the right side as a lot of them are taking folks up Doi Suthep.
  • Just like any zoo and aquarium, expect it to be busy during Thai holidays and weekends.
  • Bring water. The aquarium is not big but big enough to get thirsty. There will be snacks on the lower level, or about halfway through the displays.
  • The zoo is worth checking out as well. It’s a hilly setup so wear comfortable shoes!

    The tunnel reminds me of an aquarium in San Francisco I took Aidan to for his birthday. And those noodles? Did thay taste as good as they looked???

      55 Thanks Amy 🙂 Yeah, Monterey Bay has a lovely aquarium if you haven’t gone. Actually, I love visiting aquariums. Surprised it took me so long to hit CM. Yes, the noodles were yummy 😛

    […] Visit the Zoo and/or aquarium. I’ve enjoyed my visits, but avoid these places during the holidays unless you don’t mind […]
