Bangkok Aquarium

Bangkok Aquarium is a facility with multiple tanks displaying freshwater fish, amphibians, and reptiles in recreated natural habitats throughout the grounds. The exhibits show how different species live in their respective environments.

It was founded in 1940 and ranks among the earliest educational institutions dedicated to aquatic life research in Bangkok. The facility helped establish public awareness about freshwater biodiversity across Thailand.

The facility serves students and visitors as a learning space where interactive displays help people understand aquatic animal behavior and ecosystems. Educational programs guide visitors through the different habitat zones.

Visitors should expect different admission rates depending on their residency status, with Thai nationals and permanent residents paying lower fees than international visitors. It is helpful to check current rates before planning a visit.

Visitors can attend scheduled feeding sessions to watch how different aquatic animals eat while learning from marine specialists. These sessions offer rare chances to observe natural behavior up close.
