Introduction to Aquarium River of Zaragoza

Aquarium River of Zaragoza is a large urban aquarium located in Zaragoza, on José Atarés Avenue, within the area of the former 2008 International Exposition. Designed as a place to discover the aquatic world, it showcases ecosystems associated with major rivers and freshwater biodiversity.

The site stands out for its contemporary architecture, designed to blend into a leisure and cultural complex on the banks of the Ebro. Its indoor route takes visitors through several aquatic environments, with panoramic tanks, observation tunnels, and areas dedicated to different river and tropical species.

It is especially known for being one of Spain’s leading aquariums and for its educational mission. Visitors can discover fish, reptiles, and other species associated with rivers around the world, in a presentation that combines observation, awareness of nature, and displays of aquatic habitats.
