Qujiang Aquarium, Xi'an, China

On Saturday our family went to the Qujiang Aquarium. The aquarium is one of the largest in China. It had live dolphin, seal and mermaid shows. Besides having dolphins on display there was a beluga whale, polar bear, sea turtles, sharks, crocodiles and numerous fish. The aquarium houses China's tallest aquarium. We estimate it to be thirty-five feet tall.
Imagine my surprise when we came to the alien display. I had only heard about them on Sci-Fi shows but to see some in real life, and at an aquarium was quite shocking and hilarious.
The kids had fun feeding koi fish with baby bottles. I don't know what was in it, but the fish loved it, they sucked and pulled on the bottle really hard.
One of the highlights of the aquarium was a touching pond with sting rays, turtles and fish.
The aquarium was very Chinese meaning there was no air conditioning and there were random Mayan and alien themed displays at the park, but the kids had a blast and can't wait to go back.
Oldest child convinced us to pay $2 so we could pet a peacock and have our picture taken off it. She said she's always wanted to do that. I'm glad we could help her check it off her bucket list.
