In 2006, footprint fossils presumed to have been madeby herbivorous dinosaurs during the Cretaceous Period of the Mesozoic Era,around 100 million years ago, were found in Apsan Gosangol. Built after the fossils were excavated, this park displays a range of life-sized robot dinosaurs,including the Tyrannosaurus, Spinosaurus , Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Pachycephalosaurus.
To make the dinosaur figures more realistic, soft materials were used to allow the heads, eyes, and tails of the dinosaursto move naturally. Around the dinosaurs,there area photo zone with dinosaur eggs and baby dinosaurs,a dinosaur fossil excavation experience site, and a playground.
