Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga, Tennessee
If you plan to
tour through Chattanooga, Tennessee after your trip to
Gatlinburg TN you will not be disappointed! Just
like the Gatlinburg TN Aquarium, it is absolutely essential
that you visit the Tennessee Aquarium. You ask why? Have you
ever wanted to feel the spray of a cascading waterfall? Ever
want to experience the seasons of a lush mountain forest where
river otters play or stand eye-to-eye with hulking 65-pound
catfish patrolling the depths of the Tennessee River. How about
explore the Amazon River where piranhas dart among anaconda and
boa constrictors or listen to the birds in the mist-shrouded
delta.. Perched on the banks of the Tennessee River,
Chattanooga's Tennessee Aquarium is the world's largest
freshwater aquarium and home to more than 900 animals that swim,
crawl and fly in natural habitats. Your journey through this
world class facility may begin in the Appalachian high country
and continue on down to the Mississippi Delta, but before your
aquarium visit is over, you'll have seen the habitats, fish and
animals of the world's rivers, including Africa, South America,
Siberia and Asia. The Tennessee Aquarium is home to over 300
species of fish that range from the smallmouth bass to the
Southern stingray. Tennessee Aquarium does not just contain
animals that swim, but animals that fly as well ranging from the
mourning dove to the wood duck. Along the way throughout the
Tennessee Aquarium you'll pass through a spectacular 60-foot
canyon and two living forests, including cascading waterfalls
and mountain forests where playful otters romp through the pools
to the delight of guests. The Tennessee Aquarium allows you to
experience and interact with animals that you had only read
about in books or seen in pictures of National Geographic.
Not only is the
home of a host of plant and animal life, but also you can watch
a movie at the IMAX theatre. The massive six-story-high IMAX 3D
Theater combines breathtaking crystal clear 3D images with
state-of-the-art six channel IMAX digital sound and is
practically next door to the Tennessee Aquarium. If you ever
wanted to come closer than you’ve ever dared to one of nature’s
most sophisticated predators in the new film “Sharks 3D,” it
opens March 4 at the Tennessee Aquarium IMAX 3D Theater. You'll
witness sharks as they really are -- not wicked man-eating
creatures, but wild, fascinating and highly endangered animals,
and the film required an extensive nine-month shoot with a total
of 500 dive hours. All of the mention attractions as well as the
IMAX movie can all be found at the Tennessee Aquarium which
is easily accessible from
I-24
