Recently another construction milestone was reached for Chimelong Marine Science Museum - the main steel structure is now complete ahead of the complex's opening during the second half of 2019







Final steel segment rising into place:

Note that in the first new rendering we get our first look at Chimelong's plans for a gondola system that travels throughout the resort.

Huge construction update!

Chimelong Marine Science Museum is progressing nicely:













Does anyone know if in this photo between the street and Chimelong Ocean Kingdom if anything is being built there besides the bridge to the new Chimelong Marine Science Museum?

I believe these photos are taken on the west side of the new indoor park's construction site so kind of across the street from Chimelong Ocean Kingdom's Polar Explorer ride. This is the area where the new nautical-themed hotel will be located.

Earlier this month, Chimelong successfully completed the concrete pouring of their upcoming killer whale exhibit's main pool. The main pool, which is pictured in this post, is 100 meters long and 30 meters wide and its design is described as appearing "similar to the shape of a big fish."

EXCLUSIVE: I’m proud to share my favorite construction photos yet - new, up-close photos from the construction site of Chimelong’s new indoor marine park that’s across the street from Chimelong Ocean Kingdom. This 360,000 square meter complex, which is costing over half a billion US dollars to build, will be home to Chimelong’s killer whales.









The project's environmental impact report from June 2017 states a fourth quarter 2018 completion date. Despite construction progressing rapidly, expect the completion date to be pushed back to 2019 or potentially even 2020.
