We had fun at Meow Wolf Denver! It’s the second Meow Wolf location we’ve been to. Each location has different universes so it’s worth exploring each unique Meow Wolf! 🐱🐺

I heard it was small at first, so I didn't have high expectations. But I really liked it when I went there. I saw a lot of small animals, such as seahorses, sea otters, clown fish (Nemo), jellyfish, and sharks. DOWNTOWN AQUARIUM is actually quite interesting. It's worth a visit. I didn't see the tiger, probably because he was lazy and went to sleep. I used a discount coupon and it was 10% cheaper.
