Shanghai is about to embark on a prehistoric journey as the Natural History Museum unveils the much-anticipated "China's Dinosaur World" exhibition. With 118 fossils and lifelike models, this display charts 250 million years of evolution in one sweeping narrative.
Hosted by the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum and the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the collection gathers specimens from across China. Several fossils—some never before exhibited outside research labs—offer fresh insights into long-lost species.
From towering sauropods to agile feathered dinosaurs, each exhibit piece is paired with interactive digital displays and VR experiences, inviting visitors to dig into the data behind these ancient giants. A 3D T. rex skull reconstruction even lets guests compare their own bite force to that of the king of predators.
Tech enthusiasts, paleontology buffs, and travelers with a taste for time travel will find something to spark wonder. The exhibition opens this Saturday, promising a dynamic blend of science, storytelling, and cutting-edge tech.
Embark on an epic voyage through deep time – "China's Dinosaur World" awaits.
