Manila Ocean Park

It’s just ten days and this ‘world-class’ oceanarium located at the back of the Quirino Grand Stand opens. I am excited! I hope me and my friends would at least find some time to drop by this place.
The Manila Ocean Park is the Philippines’ first state-of-the-art oceanarium, open water marine habitat, boutique mall, restaurant row, and function facilities all located in one complex (Official site).
According to news, the Manila Ocean Park would be among the most advanced ocean parks in Asia -- with an area larger than the famous Sentosa oceanarium in Singapore.
It would feature six major exhibits, all names derived from a Filipino word. Some of these include:

1. Agos (Flow) - the only open area in the facility, will show the interconnectedness between the water and land. An artificial waterfall and a touch pool will also be located here.
2. Bahura (Reef) – will house artificial corals
3. Laot (Fishing ground) – will contain large fishes and rays.
4. Kalaliman (Deep) – barracudas!
   

The highlight of the whole water-world experience in this facility is the 25-meter long walkway tunnel with 220-degree curved acrylic walls.
Awesome?
Really cool.
Entrance fee is 250.00 for students and 350.00 to 400.00 for regular visitors. This (1-billion peso) first and largest aquarium facility in the Philippines opens December 12, 2007.
