Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park, Marine theme park in Pudong, China.
Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park is an amusement park in Pudong featuring distinct themed zones with a snow-covered mountain section and a tropical area. Gondola lifts connect these zones across a canal and offer views of the entire layout.
The site resulted from a design competition between entertainment companies that began in 2015. It opened to visitors three years later.
The park displays marine animals across multiple zones where visitors watch creatures in naturalistic habitats and during regular shows throughout the day. The design teaches visitors about ocean life while providing entertainment.
The park operates daily and allows visitors to explore the main attractions within a few hours. Its location in Pudong makes it accessible by public transportation.
The site houses one of Asia's largest acrylic glass tanks, where whale sharks and other marine animals live in controlled conditions. This tank stands out as a technical highlight of the facility.
