I will not torment you and show you right away what we went there for the first time.

The spectacle is truly worthy of praise and admiration.

The aquarium is 4 floors high, just a feast for the eyes.

There are a lot of colorful fish that can be seen in the Red Sea or the Indian Ocean.

You can watch the fish from the balconies of all floors. We liked the top floor balcony the most, especially when the fish were feeding.

The first visit, of course, we spent more time at the aquarium, looking at the fish and corals.

At the end of the visit, we were pleasantly surprised that there is Auchan in the Aviapark shopping center, so we were able to combine business with pleasure. Most often, in the beautiful shopping centers of Moscow, there is a grocery store, some kind of green intersection, with astronomical prices, and here, in the end, you can also buy groceries for a week.

On the second visit, we were already purposefully shopping, which turned out to be very convenient and exciting. Found a lot of advantages.

* Not crowded (this is probably one of the most important qualities for shopping centers in Moscow, there are not very many people in it, you feel free and comfortable, the corridors are not crowded, as in the subway)

* A huge number of shops.

* Stores for the average consumer (Simple well-known stores, most stores with adequate prices. In many "pop" shopping centers in Moscow such as Atrium, European or Afimola, most stores with exorbitant prices and designer clothes from a series of such in which jeans cost 16-20 thousand rubles. stand).

* On the territory of one shopping center there are competing stores. This principle rarely happens anywhere, I met this only in the Mega shopping center and in Golden Babylon. For example, what would be under the same roof Mvideo and Media Markt.

* Large spacious Hoff (there is where to draw inspiration, a lot of interesting ideas and buy something for the house)

* good navigation system, electronic information stands.

* a large number of playrooms for children (though at very high prices with inconvenient tariffs)

* a large number of restaurants, cafes for every taste, there is a food court

* there is a skating rink

* there is a room for mother and child

* separate floor for shops and entertainment for children

* there are free buses from the metro to the Aviapark shopping center

* windows to the floor, nice view

There are, of course, some disadvantages as well.

* paid parking (the first hour is free, for the next 3 hours 100 rubles)

* few rooms for mother and child (there are signs on the availability of a room on each floor, but so far there is only one room. By the time you find it, the child will cry, you will get tired. The room is small and completely unthought out, there is an armchair and a sink in the room, there is nowhere to put the child , bag or package only on the floor, do not wash your ass, do not change the diaper, apparently it is considered that the room is only for breastfeeding, and then how to breastfeed if the lighting is constantly turned off without movement ?! Sit and vigorously wave your leg?) So, what With small children, this shopping center is extremely inconvenient.

* many shops, cafes and restaurants have not yet opened.

Today we will visit Germany, more precisely in its capital - Berlin. Why are we going there? If only because it is in Berlin that the largest cylindrical aquarium in the world is located - Aquadom.

Where is Aquadom located?

The first plus of the aquarium, of course, is that it is located in the very center of Berlin, which provides both tourists and residents with quick access to the next miracle that mankind has come up with.

You can see the Aquadom Aquarium if you visit the five-star Radisson Hotel in Berlin. Since 2003, this giant has been pleasing to the eye of everyone.

The size of this aquarium is simply amazing.

Inhabitants of the largest aquarium in the world

Let's talk about the inhabitants of the Aquadom in Berlin themselves.

Who and what is not there. And corals, and caves, and rocks, and all kinds of algae. Mussels, sharks, river and lake fish and many other representatives of the seas, oceans, rivers and lakes are there.

There are 2600 fish swimming in this cylindrical aquarium. And the fish are absolutely different types and habitats.

For example, the Blue catfish “sailed” here, to Berlin, from the Atlantic Ocean. And the horseshoe crab is from a number of relic arthropods. They also live in the shallow waters of the seas in the tropics.

Lionfish will immediately attract attention with its bright color. This inhabitant of coral reefs does not fly at all. She received such a strange name only because of her large fins, which really look like wings.

Do you know what serves as an additional decoration in the Aquadome? So it's beautifully hung on the scenery eggs of sharks and rays.

One of the most amazing and interesting representatives of the aquarium are lobsters. No matter how you look at the lobster, you are constantly dissatisfied with everything.

But the fact that there are so many different fish in the Aquadome only enhances the overall impression. There are no "same meetings". We took a step - we met a ball fish, another step - and a sea angel is looking at you. Sometimes even these drastic changes in the "environment" scare.

Aquadom records in Berlin

Of course, this aquarium is already a champion in its essence.

The diameter of the Aquadom is 11 meters. Moreover, the Aquadom is made of special glass, which is able to withstand very strong pressure and, of course, transmits more light.

The volume of salt water is 1 million liters.

If you suddenly want to be "inside the aquarium", then in the inner cylinder you will find the most suitable device for yourself - an elevator!

The transparent elevator is located inside the salt water aquarium and can accommodate about 40 people.

The walls are approximately 19 centimeters thick and the glass, weighing 150 tons, is not felt at all. When you look at the Aquadom, it seems that you touch it - and the walls are about to crack and all the water just splashes.

In a word, not an aquarium, but a fairy tale. A story that everyone should get into.

So do not expect a miracle, but be a participant in this magic. Travel the world and a miracle will find you.

And in Germany there is the most beautiful library in the world, be sure to look at it.

Where is Aquadom located on the map

Stunning video of this huge Berlin aquarium with an elevator:

Here are 20 of the most amazing aquariums in the world. You will be impressed!

Located in the lobby of the Radisson SAS Hotel in Berlin, the AquaDom, at 25 meters high, is the largest cylindrical aquarium in the world. It is filled with more than 900,000 liters of sea water and contains about 2,600 fish of 56 species. Thanks to the large amount of sandblasted glass, the aquarium gives the hall a feeling of lightness and transparency. Guests and visitors can travel through the aquarium in a glass elevator to the sightseeing point and glass roof restaurant. The fish are looked after by two divers who also maintain the aquarium. AquaDom was opened in December 2003. Its cost is about 12.8 million euros.

The iPond is an iPod accessory that consists of a speaker and a tiny aquarium. One fish lives in about 650 milliliters of water. It is extremely popular in Australia, but some believe it is cruel to the fish. Hugh Wirth, spokesman for the animal welfare organization RSPCA, says that despite the ability of fighting fish to breathe on the surface, the tank is too small to receive required amount oxygen. A small amount of water will cause a rapid change in temperature, which means that tropical fish will not live long. "iPond should be banned," says Dr. Wirth.

Teach a man how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime. Throw a fish into a man's toilet and he will never get bored visiting him. Such a funny saying can be found on Fish "n Flush toilets. Fish "n Flush is a patented two-piece cistern designed by AquaOne Technologies, Inc., a water systems innovator. The aquarium holds 2.2 gallons of water. When you flush the water, it seems that all the water comes out of the tank and the fish are washed away, but this is just optical illusion: in fact, the fish are completely safe in another part of the tank, made of polished plastic. And the water that drains is in a separate container, behind the aquarium.

4. Car-aquarium

At the Siam Ocean World Aquarium, mall Siam Paragon, in Bangkok, has an amazing car that you can't drive. Why? Because it is filled to the top with water! Dozens of fish call this radically modified vehicle their home. The doors in this car are pre-welded in case someone mistakenly thinks it would be funny to release so much water and fish on the mall floor.

Made from highly realistic silicone, the jellyfish swim and change color with a 5-color lighting system (red, yellow, green, blue and magenta).

An aquarium maze is a whole system of aquariums. No doubt he's great. And since it's priced at $6,500, it's got to have a person with it to clean that fancy aquarium. But still, it's nice to look at the fish that move through such an unusual creation.

We saw this tall - first-high aquarium (from floor to ceiling) quite by accident. They didn’t even know about this shopping complex until they got there because of one store :) In general, we saw large aquarium and they were simply delighted :) The fact is that my men (husband and son) simply adore fish and aquariums. We visit aquariums wherever they are. And we study fish in all aquariums, cafes, shops. In Thailand, we were generally lucky, at the jewelry factory there were a lot of large aquariums with a variety of marine life. There were even small sharks. The aquarium on Khodynka, which is located in the Aviapark shopping center, is considered the highest in the world. Its height is 23 meters. And more than 2,000 tropical fish swim in it. The shopping center itself was opened last fall. And his feature was the highest aquarium in the world. By the way, the shopping center itself with a total area of 390 thousand sq.m. became the largest in Europe.

Without binoculars, in my opinion, the fish are not particularly visible. Although you can see how they float

The aquarium in Moscow is 7 meters higher than the Berlin aquarium DomAquare! Although inferior in volume. The diameter of the cylinder-aquarium in the Aviapark is 6 meters, and its capacity is 650 cubic meters. m. But because of the coral reef, which is located in the very center from the bottom to the top, the Moscow Aquarium holds only 370 cubic meters. m of water. The main aquarium has approximately the same volume. The tallest aquarium in the world is made of acrylic glass, with a total weight of 55 tons.

The aquarium in the Aviapark is visible from afar and from all levels - it is located in the center of the shopping center opposite the entrance. And if you're lucky, you can see how the scuba diver feeds the fish. He does this 3 times a day.

we were 2 times in the shopping center, but have never seen a scuba diver :)

By the way, the aquarium in the Kiev shopping center Ocean Plaza is considered the largest in Eastern Europe. It opened a couple of years ago. There is a smaller aquarium in Belgorod in the MegaGrinn shopping center.

The highest aquarium in the world is located in the AVIAPARK shopping center, but have you managed to visit it?!

Previously, in large shopping centers, people made dates at the fountains, but now more and more often - at the aquariums. Two years ago, the largest aquarium in Eastern Europe opened in the Kiev shopping center Ocean Plaza, a smaller one soon appeared in the Belgorod shopping center MegaGRINN. Now in Moscow there is an aquarium, characterized by definitive pronoun- most. The highest in the world!

Large aquariums are available in all Russian and foreign oceanariums. But nowhere is there such a high (23 meters on glass!), as in the Aviapark shopping and entertainment complex. Cylinder dimensions with sea water and thousands of fish match the very Aviapark, created in just two years on Khodynka.

On November 28, 2014, the Aviapark shopping and entertainment complex opened to amaze everyone with its scale. Unfortunately, there are no bike rentals at the entrance, so it is advisable to bring your own scooters. Otherwise, its 390 thousand square meters. m and for a week not to get around.

But back to the AVIAPARK chip - an aquarium created by the "daughter" of the American company Reynolds Polymer Technology (RPT) - by International Concept Management, Inc. (ICM). These are the world's leading manufacturers, designers and builders of unique acrylic aquariums. And now even the famous marine cylinder aquarium, built by ICM in Berlin, cannot be called the largest. At least in terms of height. The Moscow aquarium is 7 meters higher than the Berlin DomAquare! It is, of course, smaller in size. With an inner diameter of 6 meters, the Aviapark acrylic cylinder holds 650 cubic meters. m, but because of the artificial coral reef, there are actually 370 cubic meters in the aquarium. m of water. This is also a solid volume, approximately the same as the main aquarium of the oceanarium of the RIO shopping and entertainment center. Acrylic glass aquarium weighs 55 tons.

Aviapark Aquarium is well located - on the main "street" shopping complex opposite the entrance. It is visible from a distance from all four levels. Keyword here - "from afar". You can get relatively close to the aquarium only at the bottom. Strict signs do not advise to hammer on the glass and take pictures with a flash.

There are many fish and they are distributed throughout the thickness of the aquarium. Therefore, divers do not remain without work, and visitors without spectacles. To feed all the fish you have to often dive with plastic bottle, "charged" with food.

Today, there are almost 600 fish of 50 species in the aquarium. The most massively represented are bristle-toothed (92 individuals) and surgical (158 individuals). to the rarest and expensive species can be attributed to angel fish. Stocking will continue and about 2500 fish will finally settle in 370,000 liters of sea water.

Traditionally, the opening of RPT aquariums is accompanied by a merry booth of clowns, jugglers, stilt walkers and a brass band with drums. So it was this time. On the podium in front of the aquarium, they entertained the people after the fashion show.
