Zhucheng City, Shandong Province, is famous for the world's largest dinosaur fossil site. Therefore, there are several dinosaur sites here. The Dinosaur Museum is a municipal museum located in a dinosaur park for children. It is not very large, but you can see many fossils, from Tyrannosaurus to the local dinosaur, Zhucheng Saurus. In addition to the museum, the dinosaur park also has many rides for children and a good environment for walking, so it is worth stopping by at least once. However, this is not enough to make a trip alone, so it is recommended to check whether other nearby sites are open before visiting. #China #Shandong Province #Travel #Dinosaur Fossil Site #Zhucheng City #Dinosaur Museum

Last October 1, I took my child on a long-awaited family day trip to Zhucheng Dinosaur Museum. The day was full of surprises and joy. My child gained knowledge, and we made many precious memories. At 9 am, we arrived at the Zhucheng China Ankylosaurus Museum. Stepping into the museum, it felt like we had traveled back to the dinosaur era millions of years ago. The Ankylosaurus Museum displays a variety of ankylosaurus fossils, each of which seems to tell an ancient story. When my child saw the huge and sturdy ankylosaurus skeleton, they couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, ankylosaurus is so powerful, its armor is like a super shield!" After leaving the Ankylosaurus Museum, we walked for a few minutes to the China Ceratopsian Museum. The atmosphere in the Ceratopsian Museum is mysterious and solemn, with various ceratopsian fossils neatly arranged. Here, my child learned about the majestic triceratops and the strange-looking styracosaurus. After a short break, we went to the China Tyrannosaurus Museum in the afternoon. The Tyrannosaurus Museum is definitely the most exciting place on this trip! As soon as we entered the museum, the huge Zhucheng tyrannosaurus skeleton stood tall, as if it was about to roar and pounce. My child excitedly ran around the skeleton, shouting, "This is a tyrannosaurus rex, so cool!" In addition to the Zhucheng tyrannosaurus, the museum also displays fossils and models of other tyrannosaurid dinosaurs. When watching the simulated scene of a tyrannosaurus hunting, my child was deeply attracted by the realistic images and was so nervous that they tightly held onto my clothes. During the visit, I found that the facilities in the museum are very user-friendly, with dedicated rest areas for parents and children to rest at any time. Moreover, each museum has rich scientific information and interactive experience projects, which not only allow children to observe dinosaur fossils up close but also use modern methods to gain an in-depth understanding of dinosaur knowledge. This family day trip to Zhucheng Dinosaur Museum allowed my child's love for dinosaurs to go from books to reality, sparking their curiosity and desire for knowledge during exploration. For us parents, it was also a chance to relive our childhood love for dinosaurs while accompanying our child. If you also want to give your child a fun and educational trip, Zhucheng Dinosaur Museum is definitely an excellent choice! I believe you will have an equally wonderful day as we did.

｜A hidden gem for taking kids out in the winter. My dears, are you worried about choosing a travel destination in winter? Don't worry, today I found a super treasure reverse travel destination - Zhucheng Zoo, it's fun to experience it in person, I must recommend it to you 👏 📍The venue is super large, what does this mean? You won’t feel repetitive after a whole day of strolling around. Children can run around to their heart’s content and fully release their energy. The park also provides car rental services. When you feel tired, you can get on the car at any time and then rush to the next check-in point. It is a relaxing way to stroll around the park. 🥕Here comes the point! You can feed the animals here, and you are also allowed to bring your own cabbage and radishes. As soon as you enter the free-range farm, the alpacas surround you instantly. The scene is like an enthusiastic "foodie fan club". They stare at the food in your hands, which is very cute and interesting. The children can't stop laughing. There are more peacocks in the park than you can imagine, strolling everywhere, just like domestic chickens, passing by your feet unexpectedly, and any photo you take will be a lively blockbuster. What's more surprising is that if you are lucky enough to see a lion cub or a tiger cub, you can take a super cool photo with them for 30 yuan. The soft and furry little guys will melt your heart~ But whether you can meet one depends on your luck on the day. 🚗Parking is free, which makes it hassle-free. You can go straight to the park after getting off the car. But it is a little regrettable that there are not many places to eat around. It is recommended to bring some snacks and simple meals with you to fill your stomach. If you have cute kids at home or like niche check-in spots, don't hesitate.

🗓Itinerary: Drive for an hour from Qingdao to Zhucheng First stop at Zhucheng Zoo Second stop at Dinosaur Park Third stop, home 🌟Highlights: We arrived at the zoo at around ten o'clock on the weekend. As soon as we entered, we rented a car according to the number of people. We rented a three-seater for three adults and two children, which was a bit crowded . The three-seater is 100 yuan for unlimited time, and the car is easy to drive. The children just want to ride the car and don't look at the animals carefully You can bring your own food to feed the animals, it is recommended to bring more, because there are too many animals The bear 🐻 that can wave its hand, the keeper specially took food to let it wave to us The very wild leopard 🐆, when it sees a child with a fluffy hat, it can't help but pounce on the glass The monkey 🐵 that can push and pull its own lunch box. The food for the little monkey is a small iron box that can be pushed and pulled on the wall. When you put the food in, it will pull it in by itself. While eating, it will push the small box out for you to continue putting in. There is also a monkey who keeps pushing and pulling the small box to make noise for everyone to put things in, but monkeys are not allowed to feed bananas 🍌, saying that it will have diarrhea There is also a free-range area where cars are not allowed to enter. As soon as you enter the door, you are surrounded by alpacas 🦙 and sheep 🐏. If you carry food, they will always follow you. There are also sheep that will jump and run from a distance, which is too funny. If you bring children, you need to watch out for the children, don't be scared Further on are camels 🐫, giraffes 🦒, camels can ride and take pictures for ten yuan each, which is also okay. You can see tigers, lions, bears and dogs all the way. Further on is the venue for the New Year Lantern Festival. After watching the animals, it takes about ten minutes to drive out, which is quite far, and driving is very convenient After coming out, we found a mall to eat. There are not many restaurants in the mall Then drive about ten minutes to Dinosaur Park 🦕, the dinosaur museum is also inside, there are three or four museums in total, we only went to see one, that is, dinosaur fossils and other animal fossils, caught up with the 2:30 pm short film, almost five years old The child still likes to watch it. ❤Recommended reason: Because the time we went was a bit cold, it is recommended for those with children to go when it's warmer. The zoo is quite fun, you can keep feeding the animals, there are many types of animals, there are also children's play in the dinosaur park, it's quite big, it's worth a visit

#Heart-pounding summer vacation I booked Air China right away because it was the cheapest, but I felt regret as soon as I got in..🤣 I thought it was ambiguous when I saw the 2-4-2 layout, but the screen was........so old🥲 The plane itself was old, and there were no outlets including USB ports, so I couldn't charge. There were no separate amenities provided. Still, it was a 10-hour flight - transit in Beijing - 2-hour flight, so the flight time was short, and the flight attendants were friendly and the food was good!

Zhucheng City, Shandong Province, is famous for its dinosaur ruins, but the park itself is also great, aside from the ruins of the Three Armies. There are playgrounds for children everywhere, and there is a lake, so you can even take a boat on a nice day. If you go to see the dinosaur ruins with your children, don't just look at the dinosaur bones, but enjoy the park itself. I think the day will pass quickly. Our children were also dinosaurs, but they were so into goldfish fishing that they played for half a day ^^ However, there are quite a few parks like this all over China, so unless your goal is to see dinosaur fossils, it's not worth going out of your way to visit. #Withchildren #China #Shandong #Zhucheng #DinosaurPark #ChinaTravel

A progress hall was shocked! The horned dragon lives in the late Cretaceous, and is a close relative of the horned dragon. Some scientists believe that the unicorn is a sharp-horned dragon. The horned dragon's nose is very sharp and can pierce the predator's flesh.

The first bone of China - Shenmiao keel is a huge femoral fossil of the duck-billed dragon. According to research, if the dinosaur fossil can be excavated as a whole, the individual is much taller than the "great Zhucheng dragon". Since the exhibition in 1992, many tourists have been known for their ability to make their wishes. The folks call it "the first Chinese bones" and have "touching the dragon, thinking about things, touching the keel, a lifetime." The saying of happiness! Are you sure this is a museum that is not a mountain temple?

This super big guy is called "Giant Zhucheng Dragon", and this big guy has occupied a whole big exhibition hall! If you want to take a panoramic view, you need to take a wide angle and retreat to the door! The dinosaur bone on the scenic ticket is this big guy! This dinosaur belongs to the duck-billed dragon family, which is 9.1 meters high and 16.6 meters long! Because it was unearthed in Zhucheng, it was named "Giant Zhucheng Dragon" by experts! This name is relatively readable, and it feels like the Zhucheng Dragon is more domineering!

The horned dragon lives in the late Cretaceous, and is a close relative of the horned dragon. Some scientists believe that the unicorn is a sharp-horned dragon. The horned dragon's nose is very sharp and can pierce the predator's flesh. A group of mad dinosaurs, are there many familiar faces!

This exhibition hall is larger and the house is higher. Entering the door is a tall plesiosaur! From the back of the point of view, the tail of the offensive dinosaur is not very fan! These skeletons depict a scene of predation. From the perspective of the back, it is not a good idea to attack the tail of a dinosaur!

The Zhucheng Dinosaur Museum was established on May 9, 2001. It is the first county (city) dinosaur museum in China. It displays the world's tallest giant duck-billed dragon fossil skeleton and more than 100 dinosaur fossils.
