It is often asked that almost every popular city in Australia has aquariums. If you go to several cities on a single trip, which stop should you arrange for the aquarium? So let's list out what aquariums there are in Australia, and what are their own characteristics? I want you to take care of all the aquariums in Australia in one playbook!
The ocean is a mysterious and charismatic place where hundreds of millions of creatures live, fish and shrimp, corals, jellyfish, shellfish, water plants surround the sea floor, magnificent, and become the most beautiful dreamy scenery on earth. The special point of view of the aquarium is that it can enjoy the leisurely posture of the living creatures in the sea and enjoy the stimulation and shock that the creatures in the sea approach to their faces. Now, do not dive into the bottom of the sea, only one ticket, the bottom of the sea is in front of you.
