No need to dive to the bottom of the sea to be able to see the rich variety of marine life, you can find it easily at the Jakarta Aquarium. This relatively new tourist attraction displays various types of animals throughout the Asia Pacific, ranging from endemic animals, endangered animals, to the unthinkable to live in Indonesia, such as the Humboldt penguin.
In addition, there are also various educational rides that are packaged very uniquely and are a pity to miss. What are those?
1. Touching the Biota in the Touch Pool Zone
The Touch Pool zone is a favorite ride for children because here they can hold sharks, feel the tickle of starfish tentacles, and hold sea cucumbers.
2. Ride a Submarine at the 5D Theatre
This vehicle actually provides education on the types of marine animals, underwater scenery, along with explanations in the form of animation. However, it is made very interesting using 5D technology which will give a sensation like adventuring in the deep sea using a real submarine.
5D Theater can only be enjoyed by visitors who purchase premium ticket packages.
3. Collecting Points with Games App
While enjoying the beauty of marine life, you can play using the Jakarta Aquarium application, and collect points from each zone you visit.

4. Watch the "Pearl of The South Sea" Show
Not only witnessing the beauty of marine life, but in this place, you can also enjoy underwater drama performances, with marine biota figures, kings, and mermaids acting while swimming in the aquarium.
5. Selfie in South Sea Zone
This zone is the widest zone with a very large aquarium tank. You can choose a photo background of unique fish, such as sharks, rays, to giant groupers, and take selfies in front of them. Interesting right?
