Really interesting museum highlighting the different dinosaurs that have been discovered in the region. Highly informative and cool to see the dinosaur bones reassembled.
This is a very nice museum, the exhibits are in order, the specimens are simply amazing, the staff are patient with all the questions the team has, and the nearby Evilland Center is also a very pleasant place to visit.
This place is about 100 kilometers away from Calgary. The Dinosaur Museum in the famous dinosaur town is not large, but there are quite a lot of collections, teaching and fun, and there are hiking trails outside.
The movie "Jurassic World 3" once again set off the dinosaur fever, the world's hegemons and their mysterious disappearance have always filled the world with curiosity and attention. If you’re a dinosaur fan, a trip to Alberta should be within your life plan after all, 65 million years ago, it was the home of dinosaurs. From the northern prairie (Grande Prairie) near Papusstone Creek (Pipestone Creek) to the southern Delanhele (Drumheller) and the provincial dinosaur park (Dinosaur Provincial Park), , there are ancient bio-fossil relics in Alberta scattered here. It is a region with rich dinosaur bone beds and diverse fossil types in the world. There are 3 highlights worth visiting here. 1. The Royal Terrell Museum of Paleontology (Royal Tyrrell Museum)🦖 as a world-renowned paleontological museum, here is the starting point for understanding the life of dinosaurs and the causes of their extinction. The museum can not only explore various exhibits, but also observe the scientific treatment of dinosaur specimens in the laboratory by researchers. In addition to dinosaur enthusiasts, scientists will also come from all over the world to study the collection of 10,000 specimens here. 2. Provincial Dinosaur Park (Dinosaur Provincial Park)🦖 Although the dinosaur footprint is all over Alberta, the central area of the dinosaur fossil discovery site is the Provincial Dinosaur Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Southeast Alberta. How can you find the next large-scale dinosaur bone site? Let Fossil Exploration Hiking (Fossil Prospecting Hike) tell you the answer. The stunning landscapes in the park will make you bold in your search for dinosaur remains during the 6-hour journey. The expert guide will tell you the location and tips for finding the Dinosaur Valley. 3. Pipstone Creek (Pipestone Creek) bone bed 🦖 There is a dinosaur bone bed in the south of the prairie northwest of Alberta, whose fossil reserves are ranked in the world's top 5. On a steep slope along the Pipstone Creek lies a massive burial ground of thick-nosed dragons, a horned herbivorous dinosaur that lived here 73 million years ago. The nearby Phillip Jeckley Dinosaur Museum (Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum) is named after the distinguished Canadian biologist and co-founder of the Royal Terrell Museum of Paleontology. The museum has a public exhibition area, research and collection center, and teaching projects. In the summer, you can participate in a day-long field dinosaur exploration tour here, learn model-making in the paleontology lab, or open a helicopter excavation fossil experience. photo credit: Travel Alberta
