Cretaceous Dinosaur Geopark Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions

Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

Tunggur Dinosaur Cemetery, about 10 kilometers away from the urban area of Erlianhot, is a desolate and barren land. It is famous for the large number of dinosaur fossils found here. Now a Cretaceous Dinosaur Geopark has been established here. There is currently no direct public transportation to the park, and tourists can charter a car in the urban area of Erenhot. It is especially suitable for bringing children to play here, and it is a good popular science attraction. 70 million years ago, the Tungur region was once a kingdom of reptiles with lush trees and extensive lakes. With the drastic changes of the earth, the dinosaurs and many reptiles that lived here for ten or twenty million years have become extinct, and this has become a world-famous treasure trove of animal fossils. Now, when you come to the gate of the scenic spot, two "Wanlong" sculptures come into view. The park has a dinosaur fossil in-situ burial museum, a dinosaur science museum, and a mineral crystal museum. Visitors can watch dinosaur fossils and mammal fossils of various periods in the Erenhot area in the park. There are also many simulated dinosaur models in the open air of the park. There are corresponding text introductions in each dinosaur exhibition area, as well as cross-sectional views of the surface rock formations. . In the venue, the scene of the life of ancient dinosaurs is well restored, and the excavation process of dinosaurs is vividly shown to tourists.

This is the Cretaceous Dinosaur Geopark in Erlian Basin, Erlian Basin, Xilin Gol League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. There are also many dinosaur fossils in the park. It is worth coming, but it is a bit far from the city. You need to charter a car from the city. I hope the attractions can be improved. Set up a car that pulls customers from downtown to here

Five-star scenic spot, it is more convenient to be a cable car three attractions. The scenic spot is quite big and the environment is very good. Every tube has a security guard reminding you to wear a mask to measure your body temperature. The dinosaurs have seen enough, the big and small fossils can be seen everywhere on the lawn. It's a bit sun, but the children have a great time. The venue is large, and you can explore the gems by riding a balance bike inside. .

Completely beyond expectations, feel value for money, there are dinosaur fossils and post Museum scenic spots, the only drawback is that the traffic is not convenient, completely without a car, can only charter or taxi to, less than 60, more than 100, ticket 50 feel OK, but as far as the scenic area is concerned, it is worth going to...
