A Tropical Jungle Inside The Water.
Drift among shimmering currents as rainforest fish dance through their watery home.
The World's Most Diverse Ecosystem
The Rainforest Zone at VGP Marine Kingdom is carefully recreated to display the depth and energy of a tropical aquatic ecosystem right before your eyes. Every detail here has been carefully built to mirror the natural habitat as closely as possible. This zone hosts fascinating marine species that call the rivers and lakes in the rainforest their home.
The fish are from the Amazon in South America to Zaire in Congo and beyond. Each of them encapsulates survival, adaptation and freshwater diversity. Designed to educate as much as inspire, this habitat reveals how ecosystems function, showing the delicate balance and intricate design of nature.

Walk Through The Living Rainforest
At VGP Marine Kingdom, the rainforest zone does not end where the land does. Rather it begins underwater. Golden light filters through canopies, mist floats above roots curling into water and gentle rain murmurs around you. Witness the lushness of nature’s greenest world, all within our aquarium walls.
Trace The Paths of Water
Every tank recreates rainforest life where rain feeds rivers and rivers feed life. Watch schools of neon tetras, discus fish, black ghost knifefish and marble angelfish swim through. These species bring life and wonder from the planet’s richest aquatic ecosystems.
