Chimelong Ocean Kingdom

#November Destinations 2025 Zhuhai Chimelong Ocean Kingdom, located on Hengqin Island, is currently the world's largest marine theme park, covering approximately 400,000 square meters. Opened in 2014, it immediately earned multiple Guinness World Records, including "World's Largest Single-Site Oceanarium" and "World's Most Species of Marine Animals." The park features eight themed areas. The most spectacular is the world's largest whale shark tank, spanning the whale shark and dolphin exhibits. With a volume of 22,000 tons, whale sharks, leopard sharks, and manta rays swim in groups in front of 22.5-meter-thick acrylic glass, creating the feeling of being in the deep sea. Other attractions include the world's largest beluga whale theater, a 360° domed underwater restaurant, the world's longest flying roller coaster (Parrot Coaster), and the world's only polar exhibit where visitors can get up close to polar bears, penguins, and walruses on land. A must-see at night is the "Fireworks and Spectacular Show": five giant floats, 500 drones, a 300-meter-wide water screen, fountains, flames, and fireworks all bloom in unison, making it arguably Asia's premier nighttime show. The park also features the world's only "5D Castle Theater," a manatee show, a dolphin theater, and over 30 other performances. Experience the wonders of five oceans in a single day; hailed as "China's most worthwhile amusement park to fly to," it receives over ten million visitors annually.
