Deep Sea Theater: The Largest Miracle Ecosystem on Earth

The Deep Sea Theater—situated in the former boiler room of the north Thermal Power Plant—utilizes its high and wide-ceilinged space to vividly construct an absolutely mesmerizing deep-sea journey for its visitors. Through special lighting and a surround stereophonic sound experience, visitors are momentarily transported from the past into the future and from sky and land to the uttermost depths. In particular, they experience the unpatrolled ambiance of the ocean through the deep sea theater where the audience’s senses are exposed to deep sea organisms that have uniquely adapted to live in extremely harsh physical environmental conditions of food scarcity and light deprivation. In a similar manner, visitors also become more familiar with the specific technological equipment that is associated with deep-sea exploration. It is through these combined experiences that the once seemingly mysterious depths of the ocean become better known to the public.
