Indroda Dinosaur and Fossil Park

Indroda Dinosaur and Fossil Park, Fossil park in Gandhinagar, India.

Indroda Dinosaur and Fossil Park is a man-made fossil park in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, spread over 428 hectares on the banks of the Sabarmati River. It was set up by the Geological Survey of India and is the only dinosaur museum in the country. Its sections include a dinosaur section and a fossil section, with life-size dinosaur models and petrified eggs, some the size of cannonballs.

The Forest Department of the Gujarat Government began planting and restoring the site in 1970. The park, which grew to 428 hectares, was later placed under the management of the Gujarat Ecological and Research Foundation (GEER). Its fossil displays draw on finds from Raiyoli, Balasinor, and the Patcham Formation of the Kutch basin.

The park serves as an important learning destination managed by the Gujarat Ecological Education and Research Foundation, drawing students and families who want to understand prehistoric life. Visitors can observe how the site functions as an educational hub where groups gather to study fossils and learn about Earth's ancient past.

The site is located about 30 kilometers from Ahmedabad International Airport and is accessible from there, or visitors can reach it via bus services from major Gujarat cities. Wear comfortable walking shoes since the grounds are extensive and require substantial walking to explore.

The park is a man-made fossil park, not the actual nesting ground where dinosaurs lived. Its eggs and fossils come from Raiyoli near Balasinor, the world's third-largest dinosaur fossil excavation site and second-largest hatchery. Some eggs are the size of cannonballs, and fossil trackways are also displayed.
