The latest attraction to open in Abu Dhabi is the National Aquarium. It only started operating in November and is now the largest in the Middle East. More than 46 thousand species of marine fauna live here, including 200 sharks and rays. It is also the only marine zoo in the UAE that is home to hammerhead and bull sharks.
In addition, it is home to the reticulated python, the longest snake on the planet (length 10 m, weight about 115 kg).
The highlight of the aquarium is the huge 55-meter tunnel, the longest on the planet.
In the aquarium you can not only look at the fish, but also feed them, and also swim on a boat with a transparent bottom.
And just recently a new attraction appeared there: you can swim with sharks in the pool.
The entrance ticket costs 105 dirhams (2,100 rubles) per person. If you also want to go on a glass-bottom boat, it costs 150 dirhams (3,000 rupees). Children under three years old are free. Tickets can be purchased at thenationalaquarium.ae.
