Aquaria KLCC

Last Saturday afternoon,I've decided to pay Ding Ding and myself a visit to Aquaria KLCC after the long hours of AIA Sales Congress 2007.I'm not gonna elaborate what's inside the congress but much about this enjoyable trip located at the Concourse Level of Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.At first I'd let her guessed what we will be doing there,cleverly she mentioned no PETROSAINS 'coz waste money.Well... I didn't even think of going there for a date.I told her we are going to education fair instead.She suspiciously followed,thought that I really serious about that.When we walked through the tunnel I lead her to Aquaria...

Admission Fees

Adult Malaysian(MyKad) RM 28
Children Malaysian(MyKid) RM 22
Adult Non-Malaysian RM 38
Children Non-Malaysian RM 26
Senior Citizens 60 and above RM 18

The cashier asked,"Are you students?"I thought for awhile,"Yeah!".*grin*
We flashed our MMU student card and we got an entry at RM20!Saved for my car park fee!By the way,did I mentioned the car park?They are seriously overcharging the car park,like the money-thirsty MidValley CarPark management!First hour RM3 and subsequent half hour and part thereof RM1.At the end of the day,the car park fee cost me a RM11.50.

So the very first thing we saw is nontheless a big aquarium will lotsa aquatics creatures and my favourite stingray swam passed..nice move buddy!But he'd swam too fast that my camera missed it every time.We moved on and reached the touch pool where the Aquaria staffs allow us to touch their mini-sharks,starfish(reminds me of my MMU supervisor,Dr. Sulaiman) and a few shells.The starfish are cute,eventhough they look motionless,but they do climb the walls.

The next thing that I remember I'd saw surprised me,reptiles!!SNAKES!It's their new event,Reptiles Galore they named it.But I'm not a reptiphobia patient.Just wonder how aquarium is related to reptiles?Are the aquatics attracting not gaining enough attention from the crowd?But fortunately I don't have to feel them.Those snakes seems to be safely kept in their own cages,but be it venomous or not I'm not gonna get too close.See at your own risk from this point onwards:


A beautiful girl isn't she?


I could be dead in minutes without the glass.

A Series of Camwhoring:




























Inside the 90 metre moving walkway underwater tunnel:






























Before we left,I believe that this is the Feng Shui setting at the exit that will make us come back again by Lilian Too?




Overall, it is a good place for a date(eventhough some of you think that Aquaria is more like a schoolkid's holiday visit) provided that your partner is a good photographer...hahaha...I've got a good one.
