Can't read in Chinese, but it is a big (is world's biggest) ocean themed park that just opened in China last month, not too far away from Hong Kong. About 2X the size of Hong Kong's Ocean park, it is supposedly $5Billon USD to build ( that goes a long ways in China!!!), has 1800 room hotel, lots to see. It does tout the world's largest reef tank, bigger than Dubai Mall's tank which had the biggest single pane of glass... has a tunnel thru it too to see the fish.

Can't wait to see some of the youtube stuff tourists will take. From a picture of the tank, it already has volkwagan sized montis in it, large sea turtles....huge indeed. I believe the tank will house large Whale Sharks too.

Sick, I guess I gotta tell my parents to go there when they visit the country in October.

With some browsing, I found a video and a site about it prior to completion, such as sneak peaks and stuff.

got some interesting advocates for whale sharks, reminds me of the recent ban of dolphins in India as they deemed the animal to be non-persons. :mrgreen:
