Jun D: Don't miss the wide big screen window at the Ocean Voyager exhibit!! Those whale sharks are huge!!!
Aubrey Ramon: Great exhibits but the seclusion & isolation of exhibits is what works for me. Be prepared for lines & crowds but if you're going for an event it's even more awesome.

Anna C.: make sure to get there by 10 a.m, at the latest. it gives you enough time to see the exhibits before all of the feedings. the orangutan feeding was extraordinary!
Lettie J: Great reptile exhibit.
Christine LaRue: If you want to buy panda gifts, do so at the gift shop right by the panda exhibit as the main gift shop at the entrance is strangely devoid of all very many panda items.

HISTORY: Established in 1968 by Coretta Scott King, the Center is the official living memorial dedicated to the advancement of the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Exhibits illustrate his life & teachings.

Andrew C: Eternal flame of MLK's spirit and their caskets are here... really peaceful + small walk with lots of quotes. Quickly walked thru the inside exhibits, not too memorable tho
