Visitors can also see intact egg fossils of hadrosaurs at the geo-park. Although they were giants when grown-up, hadrosaurs' egg fossils are round in shape and actually look cute.
Visitors are permitted to touch a 1.56-meter tall thigh bone fossil of a hadrosaur. Touching it supposedly brings good fortune.
The geo-park has a Quarry Exhibit Hall which allows visitors a comfortable place to view the "Wall of Bones". Stretching 500 meters long and about 30 meters deep, the "wall" has nearly 10,000 dinosaur fossils embedded in the wall face.
During summer and winter vacations, activities are arranged for children to experience the excavation work.
Wang says the Zhucheng government plans to develop a world-class tourism project around the sites of dinosaur fossils within 10 years.
The project is set to include bases for scientific research, sightseeing, adventure, education and entertainment.
