Lonely Planet review

The Tropical Aquarium, at the western edge of the Bois de Vincennes, is Paris' most ambitious, with fish and other sea creatures from around the world in tanks spread throughout a dozen rooms. It was established in 1931 and housed in one of the few buildings left from the Exposition Coloniale of that year. Its role is as much a teaching venue as a tourist attraction.
