Albuquerque Biological Park

A MUST visit. The facilities are well cared for and the grounds are beautiful. Pro-Tip: You can buy a beer at their drink park and walk around enjoying the refreshing drink as you tour vast facility.

Beware of road construction on Central west bound. Hopefully, this situation has changed since I started this review.

It's been awhile since I've been to the bio park. I wanna say the last time I went may have been pre Covid. Crazy to think how long ago that was. The bio park is very unique. With an amazing array of different style gardens housed between so much space it's a beautiful site especially when you reach the pond behind the Asian garden. I think my only disappointment was the fact that several sections were blocked off for construction. If it wasn't for that it would've been a much better experience. Although the aquarium is nice with plenty of fish to see I feel like you can easily walk through it in 10 minutes. Other than that it's a neat experience to see at least once. It's really unique to see the river of lights hosted at the bio park every year. Definitely recommend if you're looking for somewhere to explore with the kids or a date (when it's cooler).

This is a good aquarium for its size. Good focus an regional fish and habitats, with crowd pleasing otters and sharks included. There's a fun underwater visitor path that takes us beneath a large aquarium. Kids went bonkers in there!The day I toured, there were many children groups in attendance.  They loved each exhibit, so long as the aquatic life was moving, of course! I heard laughing, screams, "wooooow"s, and "look at that!" over and over.There's a good message of recycling to help save our rivers and oceans, thereby saving the aquatic life. I really liked that.This aquarium is easily done under 2 hours without children and not stopping to eat in the Cafe. The $14.50 out of state admission was reasonable for this experience.

Always a fun day when we visit the bio park. The workers and volunteers are always so friendly and have interesting stories to share. It was a nice break from the norm and was nice unplanned visit. We were glad there were tickets available for a family of 6 for a spontaneous visit. The scenery throughout is inspiring.

This park was one of the highlights of our Albuquerque stay. The park features an aquarium, butterfly garden, insect building, and botanical gardens. Plan to spend several hours here- the park is large and there's a lot to see. This was one of my favorite botanical gardens I've visited so far.

Great place to get lost for hours! Their assortment of desert & tropical foliage can be described as beautiful & awe-inducing. For less than $15 per person, this was worth every bit worth the ticket price and more!

Came here for 2014 River of Lights while in town visiting family.It was kind of amazing! The light displays were awesome and impressive.Plenty of little hot cocoa stands...and a few that offered some alcoholic add-ons :-)We had a great time!

The Biological Park was a great experience. We always make a point to stop by aquariums when we are traveling out of town. The ABQ Bio Park was a great time and everyone was friendly and helpful. There was plenty of see and do. It was a good visit and we'd recommend others do it too!

It is a great place to go for an afternoon and enjoy the outdoors. Because it is filled with different plants, trees, and bushes each time you go it will be different. It is amazing the changes and seeing the new surprises. The one sad thing right now is that the butterfly house is being redone so no butterflies this year.
