The significance of the park

Dinosaur remains carry important information of life science in ancient times, and we are looking forward to solving the mystery of dinosaur extinction. More than 60 million years have passed. Xixia dinosaur Heritage Park in China provides an ideal scientific research base for the study of earth evolution, celestial evolution, catastrophes, living habits of dinosaurs, ecological environment and species extinction, and opens up a new park for science popularization and tourism.

Park Planning

Mainly in Nanyang Xixia dinosaur Heritage Park on the basis of the first phase project, according to the overall planning for construction. The first phase of the dinosaur Heritage Park project has initially completed the geological science square, dinosaur egg fossil Museum, dinosaur egg ruins and simulation dinosaur park and other important scenic spots. After the trial operation, it has been generally praised by tourists, but also exposed many problems, such as most tourists reflect that the scenic spot is small in scale, few scenic spots, insufficient information, poor participation of tourists and so on Under the premise of protection and research, the project focuses on solving these problems, effectively expanding the scope of tourism, enriching the content of tourism, using modern science and technology to enhance the interactive participation of tourists, and giving tourists a new popular science tourism experience. The dinosaur egg fossil museum will be expanded, extending from the museum to the north of the scenic area, increasing the Cretaceous red earth landform tourist area, and improving the supporting ancillary facilities such as roads, greening, parking lot, tourist service center, water supply and drainage, power supply, sanitation, safety and rescue in the project area, so as to comprehensively improve the tourist reception capacity and service level of the scenic area.

Museum expansion project

After scheme comparison and selection, the second Museum of dinosaur egg fossils was abandoned, and it was expanded to the north on the basis of the original museum.

After the expansion, digital technology, multimedia technology, network technology and other technologies were used to increase the interactive participation content of tourists, and further enhance the information content of the exhibits, so that tourists can obtain rich information in the process of sightseeing Knowledge of science and technology. And increase the warehouse area and research room, increase the collection of folk scattered dinosaur egg fossils, improve the research conditions. The expansion area is 4000 m2.

Cretaceous red earth landform tourist area

The first phase project of dinosaur Heritage Park mainly focuses on dinosaur egg fossils, and the content is not rich enough. The large area of red soil exposed landform in the whole reserve is highly ornamental and inseparable from dinosaur egg fossils. Therefore, the second phase project extends from the museum to the north to open the Cretaceous red soil landform tourist area, which can not only effectively increase the tourist area, but also provide a reference for tourists Visitors show unique geological and geomorphic environment.
