Katsuyama Dinosaur Forest Park, Dinosaur and urban park in Katsuyama, Japan.
The forest park contains more than fifty life-size dinosaur models spread across a 460-meter walking course through natural surroundings.
The establishment of this park followed numerous dinosaur fossil discoveries in Katsuyama City since 1989, including complete skeletal structures of Fukuiraptor and Fukuisaurus.
The park operates as an educational center where children and adults learn about paleontology through exhibits, interactive displays, and guided experiences.
Located at 51-11 Muraokacho Terao, the park requires approximately two to three hours to explore all installations and activities.
Visitors can participate in fossil excavation activities organized by local experts at designated digging areas within the park grounds.
