Lotte Aquarium Hanoi: tickets, prices, opening hours and family tips
Lotte World Aquarium Hanoi is an indoor aquarium inside the Lotte Mall West Lake shopping centre in Tay Ho district. It is open daily from 9:30 to 22:00, last entry at 21:00. From a reseller, a foreign adult ticket sells for about $10 to $12 (lower for a Vietnamese passport); prices vary by date and package, so check the day's rate. Allow 1 hour 30 to 2 hours. The ticket is valid on the chosen date, non-refundable and non-exchangeable. Children are priced by height, not age: child rate between 80 and 140 cm, free under 79 cm according to one reseller; a taller child on a child ticket pays a 90,000 VND supplement.
