Aquarium de Paris fish emblem
Underneath the Trocadero Gardens were old quarries, which is where the Aquarium de Paris was installed, and only the entrance is visible above ground, yet on a pole on the top of a column at the entrance you will find a very apt emblem of a fish that can be seen from a distance, and in fact there is even a fish tank where people can feed the fish, touch them, etc.

CineAqua fish emblem on its pole
We mentioned earlier that the Aquarium de Paris has the largest tank in France, and this is home to twenty-five sharks along with many other species of fish, and you can actually walk through a tunnel to see these impressive creatures up close.
CineAqua fountain basin with sculpted fish
Now in this image you can see some sculptures of small fish that were cast in bronze and positioned at the base of the column at the entrance to the Paris Aquarium, but it is not just tropical fish that you will find here, as there are sections showing varieties of coral and even one dedicated to The Seine, showing the bio-diversity of marine life throughout the world and in different environments.

Whereas this photograph shows the area just by the entrance for the Aquarium de Paris, with its emblem of the globe on top of what would have been a little kiosk, which is located in the middle of a small seating area that is ideal for a place to stop and rest weary feet before or after having a family day out at this spectacular attraction.
Glass canopy over Aquarium de Paris entrance
Although this shows another angle of the modern entrance with the glass covering stating CineAqua, as this aquarium is known by two different names, and although this entrance has steps, the place is suitable for the disabled with elevators in place and gradual sloping walkways throughout this popular tourist attraction.
CineAqua sign on lamp post in Jardins du Trocadero
Here you can see a sign on a lamp post within the Trocadero Gardens stating CineAqua, and this name came about due to the fact that as well as a stage, there are actually two cinemas located within the aquarium, one showing family movies and another showing documentaries and short information films like National Geographic, etc.
The Esplanade info board at CineAqua in Paris
Yet here you can see a board showing alcoholic drinks that are available at The Esplanade of the Aquarium, as it translates to in English, however, inside the Paris Aquarium there is also the Zen Cafe providing snacks, beverages and main dishes, where you can enjoy your meal in a unique setting alongside one of the fish tanks.
