Many tourists enjoy watching the marine life / aquatic life in the public aquariums / closed public aquariums where they get the opportunity of coming in close contact with the aquatic and ocean creatures.
National Aquarium in Baltimore is one such public aquarium where tourists watch the wonders of ocean / marine life. The aquarium is located in Baltimore's Inner Harbor at 501 E Pratt Street, Baltimore, MD (Maryland state). It is one of the best / must-see aquariums in the United States. The aquarium was opened for aquatic education and for conserving the aquatic treasures of the world and currently it is a great place to visit in the U.S.
The aquarium does not have its own parking facility. However, there is spacious open parking space opposite the aquarium.
In this post I would like to pen down the recollection of our visit to this wonderful aquarium. During our stay in Philadelphia, PA, we drove all the way from Philly to Baltimore on I 95 S in March 2012. It's a 2-hour pleasant drive.
At our scheduled entry time, we got inside the aquarium. On entering inside, I felt like I was in a different world full of aqua creatures. It was a wonderful experience and I don't know how fast the time passed. There are several exhibits which include Upland Tropical Rain Forest, Atlantic Coral Reef, Amazon Rain Forest, Dolphin Discovery and many more.
After the show, as always I was attracted towards to the gift shop where I made small purchase. There are good number of restaurants on walking down the other side of the aquarium. However, as a typical South Indian, I had to comprise with the taste / food which was so-so.
Spending a day at the National Aquarium, Baltimore, MD is really an enjoyable one. Still cherishing the delightful visit to this place. If you happen to visit Baltimore, I would say that you must visit this place.
