Songkhla Aquarium in Thailand
The Songkhla Aquarium is a must-visit place in Hat Yai. It is about 45 minutes from the city and is surrounded by several other tourist attractions.
When I arrived, I had yet to learn what the aquarium was about, but when I finally made my way in, I was surprised by the outcome. This place is great for those travelling with kids, too.
Firstly, when you enter the place, you will be taken for a video presentation by the local tourism board. An air conditioning mini theatre will present a 10-minute video of the Songkhla Aquarium in Thailand.
From there, you will see the underwater tunnel, which leads to the underwater viewing room where a show is conducted for visitors.
The underwater tunnel is pretty impressive. You will notice several large fish, sharks, and even turtles swimming over you. This is also a great photo spot.
An emcee will entertain you in English and Thai while you notice all sorts of undersea fishes coming for the feed.
If you look at the picture below, you will notice lots of large fish, including a giant grouper. Overall, it is quite an interesting experience and really fun for both kids and adults.
