Ms Chan encourages visitors not to miss another exhibit that highlights the Spinosaurus’s 1:1 reconstructed skeleton model. She added that it is displayed in its original buried state.

Science Museum Director Paulina Chan pointed out one of the more remarkable exhibits that contain a baby sauropod that was buried in just a few seconds. Some of the dinosaurs’ skeletons in the show are built from original fossils and reconstructed bones, while the Allosaurus fossil skeleton boasts a high level of completeness of over 90%. Upon entering the exhibition hall, the huge Tyrannosaurus and a Triceratops are locked in a duel, while the 15-metre-long Spinosaurus is foraging in the river.Īs another exciting feature, visitors will get the sense that they are heading back to the prehistoric world due to the loud roar of dinosaurs.

Except for the Tyrannosaurus, the other seven fossil skeletons will be on display in Hong Kong for the first time. In addition to the eight fossil skeletons, museum goers will be filled with delight at the sight of reconstructed dinosaur skeleton models that include the Triceratops, Allosaurus, Hesperosaurus, Diplodocus, Tyrannosaurus, Spinosaurus, Hatzegopteryx and a baby sauropod.
