When I was in college, I have been dreaming of being able to visit an Oceanariums, and I quite remember my mom telling me “You have to go to Kuala Lumpur,Malaysia to be able to see one” she was referring to Aquatica. Until last 2008, I don’t have to go outside the Philippines because we already have one here.

THE MANILA OCEAN PARK is an oceanarium in Manila, Philippines. It is owned by China Oceanis Philippines Inc., a subsidiary of China Oceanis Inc., a Singaporean-registered firm that has operated four oceanariums in China. It is located behind the Quirino Grandstand at Rizal Park. It opened on March 1, 2008. In terms of floor space, the 8,000 square metres (86,000 sq ft) oceanarium is larger than the Sentosa Underwater World oceanarium in Singapore, and features a 25-metre (82 ft) underwater acrylic tunnel.
