The Taichung Aquarium, located in the Cingshuei District of the city, is set to officially open its doors to the public on Thursday [1]. The aquarium has already garnered attention for its unique and immersive jellyfish display, which features images of jellyfish projected onto both the wall and floor [2].
The jellyfish display area at the Taichung Aquarium is the largest in Taiwan, boasting a diverse collection of 20 different jellyfish species [1][2]. A key highlight is a panoramic tank filled with thousands of glowing jellyfish, providing a visually stunning experience for visitors [1].
The display area is part of a larger thematic design that guides visitors through eight zones, flowing from mountain streams to ocean ecosystems [1]. This educational narrative about aquatic life connectivity is further enhanced by the integration of the jellyfish exhibit with interactive and immersive educational elements, making it an engaging learning experience for visitors, including children [2].
The Taichung Aquarium's jellyfish zone stands out for its large species variety, the immersive panoramic glowing jellyfish tank, and its strong focus on education and ecosystem storytelling within a seamlessly flowing multi-zone experience [1][2]. In fact, yesterday, people visited the display area to catch a glimpse of these fascinating creatures [3].
With its comprehensive aquatic journey themed “from the rivers of Taichung to the world’s oceans,” the Taichung Aquarium emphasizes ecological conservation and local environmental connections, making it not just a display but a lesson in ecosystems [1][2]. The aquarium's jellyfish display has already been the subject of a recent photo by CNA [4], and it is expected to be a popular attraction for visitors.
