On Sunday night Sean, Zhao Min, Qin Chen, Qin Chen's cousin and I went to the Dinosaur Park. The Dinosaur Park is one of Changzhou's most popular attractions and is basically an amusement park with the theme of dinosaurs. In addition to the rides there were random dinosaurs towering above the trees around the park.
There are also many displays and information on bones and archaeology as well. During Halloween weekend the park adds decorations, a haunted house, parades and a concert with a Halloween show complete with Korean pop singers.
Upon entry, everyone was given a mask to wear and we were impressed by the amount of people in costume. We had a lot of fun with the masks/hats/costume as shown below.
Qin Chen and Zhao Min were adorable in their bat ears.
There were a lot of people in the park, however, and the lines were long for all of the rides. For this reason we waited until the concert started and after the first five minutes we bailed to ride the coasters line-free.
One of the floats in the parade - it was pretty elaborate with moving, animatronic parts
The Halloween pop concert with fire, fog, flying ghosts on wires, and dancing Halloween characters in full costume
All in all our first visit to the Dinosaur Park was fun - thanks Qin Chen for buying us the tickets in advance! We arrived home tired, cold, hungry and completely pooped. But the memories of a Halloween adventure in a Chinese in the unexpected place of a dinosaur theme park made it all worthwhile.
That was great fun to me because last time when I went to dinosaur park, I just tried several items in the park. But this time I tried most of the items. It's a shame that we didn't have time to go into that haunted house.
