  1. I found this museum quite interesting. The museum itself is air conditioned and easy to walk around. We had a good afternoon walking around and taking photos. 4 Stars.

  2. They have made an interesting museum where we get a glimpse into local history and most of all: How it all started, from The Big Bang! Tribute to Ministry of Natural Resources for making more than 20 videos you can watch on your trip through the museum. I wish I could show some of them to my young relatives.

  3. I was not sure when I drove to this place especially when we had to drive to thru some of the local roads. However, it was great! The kids enjoy the day and learn so much and I have such a lovely time captured that! The museum which is arrived prior to the !National park is what we visit. It consists the outdoor display and indoor museum. We visit during a special free entrance day so sorry we can give information on Te ticket price (which I expect low). The outside areas have so many big dinosaurs statue, with descriptions in both Thai and English. Some dinosaurs can move and make noise. Some of them to scary for my 4 years old, but you can just walk away from that. The inside museum was amazing with a lot of knowledge and light& sound. The kids have chance to also see so many pieces of Bones with the explanation. There is also some knowledge about the early, petroleum etc. Highly Recommend all family!

  4. Me and my family went here on the way back from khon kaen to sichomphu, a little bit of a diversion but not too much.The place is small and compact and it will pass about an hour of your time, nice to see and read about the dinosaurs 🦖.It’s worth a visit and the actual inside has air conditioning – there’s a couple of shops as well. Also there is a lot of land around which has been sparsely filled with things.

  5. The Phu Wiang Dinosaur Museum is a museum mainly exhibiting fossils, including the first ever found in Thailand. In that it is under the administration of the Department of Mineral Resources, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, it displays the geological history and mineral resources of the country.

  6. Great place to learn the different dinosaurs that habituated in Thailand comparing with other countries. New large establishment not far away from the Town centre. It had a kiosk and also a gift store with a wide range of gifts. Great for families with kids.

  7. The gardenhouse with the automat dinosaur was nice, the kids were really scared.Every board is in English so we could understand every things.It talk about not only dinosaur, but also earth origin.
