  • Join me on a full tour of the Dallas World Aquarium Texas.
    The Dallas World Aquarium is a for-profit aquarium and zoo located in the West End Historic District of Dallas, Texas, USA. It aids conservation and education by housing many animals that are threatened or endangered as part of a cooperative breeding program with other zoos around the world. It has been an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums since 1997 and is a member of the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums.
    The aquarium was opened in October 1992 in an old 1924 warehouse that had been gutted and rebuilt on the inside. In 1997, "The Orinoco - Secrets of the River" opened in an adjacent warehouse that had been similarly gutted and transformed, and the alley between the two buildings became the divide between freshwater and saltwater exhibits. In May 2000, it purchased a vacant lot behind the original warehouse for its first new construction, the Mundo Maya exhibit, which opened in August 2004.
    Exhibits are as follows:
    Orinoco
    The upper level of the aquarium is an artificial reproduction of a rainforest canopy with several aviaries and primate enclosures called Orinoco. The second level consists of animals that live in the understory layer while the last level consists of several large Amazonian fish and manatees.
    Cloud Forest Trek
    The newest exhibit in the aquarium, the Cloud Forest Trek was opened in November 2021. The aquarium collaborated with SNA Displays to create a LED video screen that can transition from day to night to simulate a real-time rainforest. Here, see the only public display of three-toed sloths in the United States, plus many other Andean animals.
    Mundo Maya
    Tropical and marine animals indigenous to Mexico and Central America are featured in this gallery. The area also has a 400,000 gallon tunnel tank with sharks and stingrays, known as the aquarium's "Shark Tunnel" attraction.
    Aquarium
    The lower level houses aquaria featuring: fish, sea anemones, coral, jellyfish and other sea animals from around the world. The 10 main tanks feature the aquatic life of: Japan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, British Columbia, Fiji, Palau, Southern Australia, Lord Howe Island and the Solomon Islands. Other tanks on display include a large tank with a 40-foot (12 m) tunnel where visitors can observe fish of the continental shelf swimming around them.
