Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum is everybody's favorite in Fukui because...it's simply exciting! When you enter the museum, the first thing waiting for you is a gigantic dinosaur robot that moves, screams, scares the hell out of you as though you are lost in the movie, 'Jurassic Park'. The exhibits are extensive and there are variety of events always going on to entertain visitors. On my way back home I bought a 'Dinosaur Egg' at the museum's souvenir shop.
