Lisbon Oceanarium

Lisbon

The Oceanarium in Lisbon, Portugal is an oceanarium dedicated to the ocean. It is located in the Parque das Nacoes, which was the exhibition grounds for the Expo ’98.
The building was complete in 1996 and is the work of the architectural concern metropolis Seven Associates under the direction of Peter Chermayeff; it is said to resemble an Aircraft carrier, and is built into the platform on an internal sea. Chermayeff is also the designer of the metropolis Oceanarium, the world’s largest aquarium. The port Oceanarium has a large assemblage of marine species — birds, mammals, fish, cnidaria, and other marine organisms. The building is a small ride from the heart of port and is a large traveler attraction. The structure of this building is farther from the ancient buildings of port though it is only a few minutes away. I personally visited a lot of in Europe ans States and this one is best in Europe and one of must travel attractions in Lisbon.
