HA NOI (BizHub) — The country's largest and most modern aquarium, Vincom Mega Mall (VMM) Times City, opened in Minh Khai Street, south of Ha Noi, on Tuesday.
The aquarium has a capacity of 3 million litres of seawater and has thousands of marine creatures and reptiles. Penguins, spider crabs, otters and sea cows will be showcased for the first time in the country.
According to the investor Vingroup, VMM has over 300 stores and an Ocean Mart hyper-market, spanning over 11,500sq m, a 15,000sq m food centre, and other leisure attractions. The company said that 90 per cent of the mall has been occupied by famous brands only after they offered seven months' rent. Vingroup also launched their health services and education clinic at Times City on Tuesday.
On the occasion of Christmas and the New Year holiday, VMM will distribute 120,000 vouchers to early birds to avail of its services, as well as 50 per cent discounts on entry tickets to the aquarium for one month.
For the first time, Vingroup offers Hanoians a chance to watch a free 30-minute musical fountain show alongside a 400-metre man-made river at VMM Times City on Christmas Eve, and every evening thereafter between 18:00 and 21:00 in winter and 18:30 and 21:30 in summer. — VNS
