“The AquaDom is a 25 meter tall cylindrical acrylic glass aquarium with built-in transparent elevator. The Aquadom is the largest acrylic glass cylinder in the world, with a diameter of over 11 meters, built on a 9 meters tall concrete foundation. Filled with about 900,000 liters of seawater, it contains some 2600 fish of 56 species. The feeding of the fish and the cleaning of the fish tank is performed daily by a pair of full-time divers.” - Wikipedia
Visiting the Aqua Dom and taking a ride in the lift was an amazing experience, it felt quite magical, as if I was travelling on Willie Wonkas Glass Elevator, or had gone through Alice’s Looking Glass. The design of the lift was also unique, as it was the only lift with a staircase I have ever seen.
