China Dinosaurs Park, Dinosaur-themed amusement park in Changzhou, China
China Dinosaurs Park is a dinosaur-themed amusement park in Changzhou featuring multiple sections dedicated to prehistoric life. The grounds include a museum, water park, and adventure zones with dinosaur displays and fossil exhibits.
The park opened in September 2000 as an educational center focused on prehistoric science. Over time it developed into a destination showcasing important dinosaur fossils and exhibits from various geological periods.
The park's annual International Lantern Festival fills the grounds with lantern displays and fireworks. Parades also mark festivals, with performers in cartoon costumes singing and dancing, sometimes reenacting scenes from animated films and computer games such as "Baby Dinosaur". In 2011 the park and nearly 400 companies formed a dinosaur creative industry alliance behind the "Dinosaur Baby" animation brand.
The park is easily accessible by public bus from downtown Changzhou and well-signposted throughout. Visitors should wear comfortable walking shoes since the grounds feature varied terrain with both paved paths and natural areas to explore.
The park features a hot spring facility drawing geothermal water from 2,000 meters underground at around 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees Fahrenheit). This subterranean thermal source combines relaxation with the prehistoric adventure experience above ground.
