No HK Disneyland for us! Give us Ocean Park anytime!! Ocean Park is a nice little theme park in Hong Kong in which the main attractions are the endangered species of animals they keep in there. Of course, there are also other attractions such as thrilling rides and exhibitions.
Introducing Jia Jia, who was munching away on bamboos when we visited. I wanted to capture An An's photo, but he was sleeping BOTH times i went into his habitat. And Ocean Park had the nerve to write in his description, describing him as 'Agile and Active'.
This is one of the younger pandas, either Le Le or Ying Ying. He/she was sleeping so soundly, amidst all the frenzy happening on the other side of the exhibit. Many visitors were scrambling to capture this cute photo of him snoozing on a rock.
No visit to Ocean Park is complete without catching one of their many famed Animal Shows. Among the animals featured were the seals, dolphins and sea lions. Here, a live band warmed the audience up right before the start of the show.
There is a nice big aquarium in the middle of Ocean Park, the Atoll Reef. Small and big fishes circle the two main circular aquariums in the exhibit.
One of the main attractions would be the Jelly Fish Spectacular. These spineless creatures swim in tanks which were brightly lit with colourful lights to accentuate their movements. And i never imagined jelly-fish could dance!
At the other end of the park is the Pacific Pier, house to the seals. It was feeding time, and they were happily hopping into the water to retrieve their snacks. There is a viewing gallery under the water for visitors to watch them underwater. They actually swim upside down, gentling guiding their movement by swaying their rear end.
The cable car that takes people from the highland to the lowland and vice versa. Nice views as the cable car travels along the coast.
The new Amazing Asian Animals Exhibit where some new pandas are housed. They also managed to acquire two new Red Pandas, who are not shy at all, jumping around and playing while the excited onlookers gawked at them.
