Chattanooga’s very own Tennessee Aquarium was ranked No. 1 in the country by Newsweek Magazine’s readers. To celebrate, we’re here to tell you some of our favorite things about the aquarium.
- The pyramid rooftops are a major part of the city’s skyline + a true identifier for the downtown area.
- From reintroducing 250,000+ Lake Sturgeons to the Tennessee River to projects for five other species, there is a continued effort to restore freshwater ecosystems.
- We love seeing all of the seasonal fun the aquarium gets up to — you don’t want to miss seeing the scuba divers carving pumpkins or dressed as Santa underwater.
- And of course, seeing our fish friends. Editor Haley could personally stand in front of the jellyfish wall for hours.
Bonus: The Tennessee Aquarium is also in the running for USA Today’s Readers’ Choice for the “Best Aquarium” list.
