"Just got back from Auckland,and visited their Kelly Tarlton,s UW. The place is well maintained but in terms of exhibits The Langkawi one far surpasses it with more varieties of fish with the exception of sharks. With a bit of touching up maybe ours could be the best in the region." by fauzi

"You may find this place boring. Fishes are not as many as you would have thought. But wait, a new attraction is coming, the Penguinarium. What's more, if you like hot and spicy Siamese and other regional food, you can satisfy your taste buds in the exotic 'Kampung Siam', a very well-known food outlet here, just next to this place." by Rusdhi Saliman
