    In museum it's explained very nicely in common language, details also written in English and Gujarati language of all animals and where were their fossils found. Yet not completely made construction work and renovation going on. 3D show was also not there yet work is on in theatre room. Fossil park where they actually found fossils needs walking and in summer in heat it was difficult to visit so I couldn't visit it

    One of a kind museum in India. Good to gain insights about dinosaurs and their fossils. Takes around 1-2 hours to look around the whole place.

    Beautiful place at where before approx 400-600 crore years ago dinosaurs were living on this land.. In museum you can see all history of how earth was formed in video form through projector also there is one little theatre where 3D movie of dinosaur was played. It was amazing experience. Ticket charge- kids-20₹, Adult-50₹, Foreigners-300₹ Museum is amazing also well maintained.. Need to improve restaurant facility as there you can buy only tea or coffee and ice cream (limited). You have to go there with 2-4 hours minimum spare of timing if you want to explore all things.. Overall its good to go where dinosaur🦕 was having there kingdom in past years.. Thanks... Alap Joshi

    It us workds 3rd best archeological site. Really appreciable work has been done Everytbing about dinosaur one can learn through videos and models. Real eggs, vertebras, bones are oreserv6very niceky but not articulated or importantance given very nicely. There should be guided to exolaine at archeological site or atkeast there should be plates there so that one can read about all types of dinosaurs. The 3D and 5D theatre steals the show. 70 rs ticket each The working model of dinosaur is really unique experience. Entry fees is 50 Rs. I dont if they will develop this site more or close it. But i really wish they develop it more because they have already made itso beautiful. Preserved all the folis and the skeleton made from real moulds is so fascinating. One must definitely go there to enjoy as well as learn.

    Nestled in obscurity post-COVID lies Raiyoli Dinosaur Fossil Park, a forgotten realm echoing with whispers of an extinct species. Paleontologists and geologists alike will find it a trove of excitement, brimming with remnants of ancient life. Raiyoli, overshadowed by Balasinor, emerges as the third-largest fossil site, a hidden gem awaiting rediscovery. Its allure rivals that of a movie set, evoking images of Jurassic Park. Here, visitors can reconnect with the past, immersing themselves in the enigmatic world of dinosaurs. Raiyoli beckons adventurers and history enthusiasts alike, offering a glimpse into a forgotten era waiting to be explored once more.

    Our recent family excursion to the 'Dinosaur Fossil Park and Museum' in Raiyoli, Balasinor, Gujarat 388265, was an absolute delight, especially for our kids. This exceptional destination exceeded our expectations in every way, making it a perfect outing for families. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the sheer enormity of the museum, which is a fitting homage to these colossal prehistoric creatures. The first thing that caught our eye were the original dinosaur eggs on display, a truly remarkable sight that had our kids in awe. The opportunity to witness these ancient artifacts up close was an educational experience we'll never forget. The museum houses an extensive collection of dinosaur skulls, each with its own captivating story. As our kids examined these fossils, they were transported back in time, imagining the world when these magnificent creatures roamed the Earth. The interactive exhibits and informative plaques provided rich context, making it a fantastic learning opportunity for young minds. One of the absolute highlights of our visit was the thrilling 5D movie experience. Our kids were not only educated but thoroughly entertained as they embarked on a thrilling journey into the dinosaur era. The sensory immersion left a lasting impression, and they couldn't stop talking about it. Throughout the museum, there are more than 10 galleries dedicated to dinosaurs, offering a comprehensive look into their lives. Our children were engrossed in learning about dinosaur biology, habitats, and evolution. The museum's commitment to education is commendable, and it's clear that they've created a space that both educates and entertains. What truly stood out during our visit was the enthusiasm of the staff, who were eager to share their knowledge and engage with our children. They made the experience even more enjoyable, answering our kids' endless questions with patience and enthusiasm. To top it all off, the entry cost is incredibly reasonable, at just ₹400 per person. Considering the wealth of knowledge, entertainment, and sheer joy this museum offers, it's a true value for money. You can get so much for ₹400, making it an accessible and enriching experience for everyone. In summary, the 'Dinosaur Fossil Park and Museum' is an ideal family destination, especially for kids who have a fascination with dinosaurs. The combination of genuine artifacts, an immersive 5D experience, informative galleries, and affordable entry fees ensures that children not only enjoy their time here but also leave with a deep appreciation for the world of dinosaurs. Our family had an unforgettable day, and we highly recommend it to families seeking both education and entertainment in one remarkable place.

    Great experience for true seekers in field of geology/paleontology. A guide who is not that well to do with the above subjects will help you to spot something that's worth it. But you have to search for him first. Good free parking facility is available atop the entrance gate. The site approach road is mostly of single track type but in good condition. A museum as such a building yearning for visitors lies shut near approach road to fossil site. Good place for star watching.

    India's Jurassic Park - One of the world's largest dinosaur fossil site situated at Raiyoli (Village in Mahisagar district of Gujarat) is home to one of the largest clutch of dinosaur hatcheries in the world. At least 13 species of dinosaurs lived here, possibly for more than 100 million years until their extinction some 66 million years ago.

    It's one of a kind park where you can see and touch real dinosaur fossils embedded in rock. Gives a whole new perspective of time and the changes that comes along with it. Unfortunately I couldn't experience the museum; waited 4 hours for the museum to open today, but it remained closed due to power cut. But certainly it's worth a visit. There is still ample opportunities for development of the park and I hope the concerned authorities take it up.

    Good place to visit. Especially the museum ( fossil park can be skipped ) Kids will definitely love this place. The place was very clean and tidy. Plenty of galleries to showcase different species of dinosaurs. The souvenir shop should have more options though.

    Good experience but require proper maintenance. At entrance letters missing from 'Fossile' & 'Raioli '. At museum : For your meal you have to carry your own. Only snacks found in restaurant, like Bhujia and Bataka Pauwa. Gujarati Tourism require lot of work to manage. To reach here road is good.

    World's 2nd no Dinosaur. Fossil Park. And that is in india and it is in gujarat..Wow..But this wow..End when you comes here..Place has a history of more than thousand years but not kept well. Still more conservation needed and it is going on. Vast land and it has only few glimpse to see..But it is proud for us. Visit once. There is a harry/museum cum wonderful place just 200 mt near this junction. Where audio, visual show and virtual gallery made for more understanding and information related to it. You can take photos here too.

  • 4/5 Parth S. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is a hidden gem in the middle of nowhere and hasn't received the praise / appreciation it deserves. It's located at a distance of about 110km from Ahmedabad - on the road that leads to Indore - near Balasinor. The attraction is split into 2 parts - 1 outdoor area that covers the places where the actual fossils were found are still preserved and on display, and another indoor museum where you find the interactive shows and galleries that guide you through the entire evolution and extinction of dinosaurs. The entry to outdoor area is free and the tickets to the museum cost Rs. 20 and Rs. 30 for adults and children respectively. You can watch a 3D movie, play some games and go on a walk through with some excellent videos and detailed descriptions and depictions of various kinds of dinosaurs. Adequate parking space is available. There's also a souvenir shop too. The washrooms, kids' play area and restaurant could've been better though. The staff could be trained a little better to be more interactive and pleasant - almost everyone was busy talking to each other or playing games / watching videos on their phones. Definitely worth a visit, especially for kids between 10 and 18 years of age. A half day trip from Ahmedabad / Baroda. Do carry some light snacks since there's no reliable option nearby.

    New addition done recently and inaugurated by Gujarat CM. Park presenta history at around 1980s Paleontologists accidently came across the fossil remains and bones in the village of Rayioli in Balasinor. After tha this place has been flooded with researchers and a number of excavations have taken place in the area the findings of which revealed the fact that there were more than 13 species of dinosaurs that thrived around 65 million years ago. This fossil park here contains life sized statues of those giant creatures and further excavations have found that a squat, thick-legged, heavy-bodied carnivorous dinosaur with a crested horn, Rajasaurus Narmandensis, King of Narmada. A visit to the fossil park will surely make you dig deep into the history of dinosaurs in Gujarat. The museum is spread in an area of over 25,000 sq. feet with 10+ galleries spread in the basement and the ground floor depicting various forms of displays (films and exhibitions). Also recently inaugurated an exclusive 5-D film is prepared on Rajasaurus Narmadensis Other galleries display details on Dinosaurs of India and Gujarat, Fossil Exhibits and many other features that will bring out the child in you. One can relish this museum through digital, print and static form. The state government has not only catered to those seeking information on dinosaurs and their fossils, but also a Time Machine, 5-D film, an Interactive and amusing Dino fun for kids area, a vivid display of Mesozoic times, souvenir shop etc. The museum will depict as many as 40 sculptures that will throw on a light on their size, shape, habits and habitat. The atrium features an exact replica of the habitat of these creatures. A step in the atrium will transport you 65 million years back.

  • 3/5 vimarsh p. 2 years ago on Google
    Museum is good informative place but required much care and maintenance. Few kiosk and projectors are not working. Actual site location is just a place with boundaries, and only one fanced square with notice board where it is written with one photo that from here eggs were found. All other part is just barren unattended piece of land. If we wish that coming generation will visit the place government should work much on encouraging experts to explore much at site to found other things too...

    Where past meets present. The best collection of dinosaur fossil and eggs and also details description of it in museum. Museum and fossil park are located separately around 200 metre apart. Inside museum you will found detailed evolution of animals since inception of earth, sculpture and skeleton dinosaur, 5D animated movie of dinosaur and how paleontology department works. Best place to visit with with children.

    Most fascinating Dinosaur park and museums. It’s located near the Balasinor town a bit remote place to reach but worth it. The open park which is spreading about the area of 72 hectares land. One can see both eggs and skeletons fossils preserved in Lameta formation limestone. on outcrop one can see the fossils of dinosaur spred throughout. Must visit at least open outcrop in compare to museums.

    An absolute waste place. Do not visit this place as this place will completely spoil your expectations. This fossil park has fossils which appears like stones, if information board isn’t there on top of this so called fossils then every one will consider them as stones. In the name of fossil all you get to see is fragments arranged shapelessly. Museum is OK but honestly nobody comes so far in the middle of nowhere to see some man-made statues of dinosaurs. The fossil park spoils your mood so much that no museum can uplift it.

    Dinosaur museum provides ample amount of information to the one who are really interested to about the Earth inception and era of dinosaur. 5d show and VR experience was really an average. May be I have experienced better technology than this before. If you have not experienced VR or 5D in past then you must experience it here. Management should really look to maintain cleanliness. Canteen food was average and it was not at all clean. To summarise one can visit this place at least once who has really some interest to know more about dinosaur.

    The Dinosaur Museum in Balasinor, Gujarat, was awesome! When we went there, it felt like we traveled back in time to when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. The museum had cool displays showing different kinds of dinosaurs and how they lived. The best part was seeing the big dinosaur statues outside. They looked so real! Inside, there were fun things to touch and learn about dinosaurs. The people who worked there were really nice and knew a lot about dinosaurs. Plus, the area around the museum is famous for finding dinosaur fossils, which made it even more exciting. If you like dinosaurs or just want to learn something new, you should definitely visit the Dinosaur Museum in Balasinor. It's a super fun and interesting place to explore! Highly recommend, especially if you dream of becoming a paleontologist one day!

    One of the only fossil parks in Gujarat. It's still in the initial place and the road to that park is a bit wayward but it will become tourist spot in a while.

  • 4/5 Jayesh T. 4 years ago on Google
    It is believed that one of the largest clusters of dinosaur hatcheries in the world is there in Gujarat. It is considered home to at least 13 species of dinosaurs for more than 100 million years until they became extinct 66 million years ago. The 72-hectare park has as many as ten thousand dinosaur fossils. One of the reasons why this area proved favorable for the survival of the dinosaurs is the soft soil found here which made the hatching of eggs easier along with the protection of the newly hatched young ones. That is why the fossilized eggs found here are in an almost pristine condition according to scientists. They are one of the best-preserved dinosaur remains of the world after Aix-en-Provence in France. It is a good idea to take a guided tour of the park since the location of the egg fossils are all over the park and they are difficult to spot without a guide. Princess Aliyah Babi who is the guardian and custodian of this park has done a remarkable job of maintaining this park and she gives guided tours to visitors sometimes. The park is an open fossil park and you can see the giant statues of T- Rex and Brontosaurus which bear a striking resemblance to the real creature. The fossils found here include those of femur, eye hole, tibia fibula, vertebra, egg scale, claws, skin, and wood fossils but one of the most interesting fossils that you can see here is the brain fossil of a dinosaur. A trip to the park transports visitors back to the age of the dinosaurs as one sees the indents made by the eggs in the soil, life-size statues of dinosaurs in various positions, some in menacing attacking pose and others in a calm posture. Visitors are allowed to take pictures at this park and this place is so fascinating that you start taking pictures right from where a giant rock states the name of the park. There is a museum near the fossil park and visitors can find extensive information about the history of dinosaurs' fossils that have been found in India and Gujarat. Multimedia devices are used at this museum to explain the evolution of different species. It is a multilevel fully air-conditioned museum and extremely child and disabled friendly with ramps for wheelchairs and prams. Visitors can take a picture with all the dinosaur statues in the park as well as those in the museum.

    Long way to go before the fossil park gets viewer friendly.. You would need a basic understanding of fossils to enjoy the significance, else all fossils resemble rocks.. Museum is well developed and informative but needs multi-dimensional movies and themes to get a true jurassic park experience.. Various Souvenir are available inside the museum but are a tad costly.. Roads in Gujarat are world class; even interiors have properly maintained roads, but the last stretches to the site are under expansion.. A different and new type of experience.. Thanks to Gujarat government for the initiative..

    World's second largest site of dinosaur fossils. Fossils of "Rajasorus" the only Indian origin dinosaur was found here. A must visit place. Development of site is in progress. We were guided by gatekeeper who is associated with this park since 1998. He has much deeper knowledge even can speak English.

    The Dinosaur Fossil Park is awesome. It has lots of information which we may not know as layman. Obviously Paleontologists will always have lots of knowledge about the same. Considering the fact that we common people should know and explore. What a proud moment for us in terms of Dinosaur's presence in India & particularly in Gujarat...

    This museum serves the insight about origin,presence and the future aspects of majestic dinosours which ever happend to this world. The architect and designer poured their heart out to mad it look like live. Use of AI and graphics technology puts add on to this wonderful setup. It requires 2-3 hours for detailed visit. #Absolute_worth #Child_must_visit

    I’m surprised why I hadn’t heard of this place before. Real eggs and bones were found here. There are preserved inside glasses. Lots of galleries with sculptures, posters and history of dinosaurs that were living in this area. Worth a visit.

    I recently visited Balasinor Dinosaur Park last Sunday and initially had some concerns about transportation. Unfortunately, there was no transportation facility available, so you have to go with your personal car, bike, or other means of transportation. Public transportation options like buses, taxis, or rickshaws were not available, which was a bit inconvenient. However, this is just a minor issue and shouldn't deter you from visiting. Once I entered the park, I realized that it is one of the best places I have ever visited. The museum was inaugurated by Vijay Rupani last year and offers a thorough insight into the world of dinosaurs. The staff at the park were local and not necessarily professional, but they provided an excellent experience through their interactions. They were knowledgeable and enthusiastic, making the visit even more enjoyable. I purchased three tickets, including VR (Virtual Reality) and 5D experiences, along with the regular admission ticket. The total cost came to around Rs. 170 per person, which was reasonable considering the value provided. The museum showcased how dinosaurs existed millions of years ago, and it was incredibly informative. I highly recommend experiencing the VR and 5D attractions if you visit the site. They added an extra layer of immersion and excitement to the overall visit. In conclusion, my experience at Balasinor Dinosaur Park was great. Despite the initial setback with transportation, the park itself offers a fantastic experience for dinosaur enthusiasts and anyone interested in learning about the prehistoric era. The museum is informative, and the addition of VR and 5D attractions makes it a must-visit place. Don't miss out on this incredible destination!
