The Fukui Dinosaur Museum is a comprehensive venue! Dinosaur World, Earth Science, Origin of Life, and the independent Katsuyama Dinosaur Relics!
There are a total of 44 dinosaur skeleton specimens in the museum, which is a great place for parents and children!
The building has a unique architectural style. From a bird's-eye view, it looks like eight giant dragons hugging each other, giving people a sense of soaring. From a horizontal view, it looks like the ancient Egyptian pyramids. In the prologue hall, there is a large stone mural of dinosaur life scenes; in the specimen exhibition hall, there is a hadrosaur fossil skeleton, the largest in the world, and nearly 100 new dinosaur fossil specimens; in the simulation hall, there are simulated dinosaurs of different sizes and shapes; in the excavation hall, the scene of the dinosaur excavation site is reflected in an authentic way; in the circular screen movie hall, people can watch the circular screen movie "Dragon City Scenery";
