RiverQuarium has many other impressive exhibits including interactive displays and a new aviary. They have special programs and performances including dive shows, alligator feedings, and animal presentations. Don’t miss the intense Imagination Theater. The 3-story tall IMAX theater which shows 3D educational flicks to get your heart thumping. Those sharks look so big.

Ray

Ray Charles was born here and, as it should be, the city is proud to spread that news around. Head to the Ray Charles Plaza on the Flint River in downtown Albany for something special. The idea of the plaza is for visitors to get something similar to the experience of a Ray Charles performance. A bronze statue of Ray sitting at a baby grand piano (sculpted by Andy Davis) is the centerpiece of the plaza. Students from Georgia Academy for the Blind helped with the design. Water goes down the sides of the statue and Ray’s music is piped through the park. There is also a miniature version of the sculpture in the plaza with markings in Braille on it.

Civil Rights

The Albany Civil Rights Institute opened in 2008 with an aim to educate visitors on Georgia’s rich history in the fight for Civil Rights. The museum is housed in Mount Zion which was a church built in 1906. Mount Zion is on the National Register of Historic Places and was one of the churches where people would go to hear Civil Rights leaders, like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. speak. Old Mount Zion is just one of the incredible artifacts visitors to the Institute can experience. Every second Saturday of each month the Albany Civil Rights Institute Freedom Singers perform.

A Natural Wonder

One of Georgia’s Seven Natural Wonders is in Albany. Radium Springs Gardens pumps 68-degree water from an underground cave. Yes – an underground cave. Sorry. Don’t think they have any apartments for rent down there, Batman. Radium Springs is the largest natural spring in the state. Pretty cool.

Chehawesome

Where can you find an educational, inspirational, 800 acres of wild fun? Chehaw in Albany, Georgia. Say it together now, you know you want to: “Chehaw.” This place is just tons of fun. It includes a 100-acre zoo, the Chehaw Wild Animal Park. Visitors have a one-of-a-kind experience as they view native and exotic animals in their natural habitat. Jim Fowler, “Wild Kingdom” host and Albany native, planned the park. Chehaw also has one of Georgia’s largest play parks, a petting zoo, and a miniature train. They even have BMX biking, golf, and campgrounds and RV sites – there’s a reason this place is known as “nature’s playground.” Chehaw has tons of programs and special events as well. Seems like you could go there just about every day of the year and never run out of things to do and see!
