Among them, we witness a captivating scene of Tyrannosaurus rex dinosaurs mating - a glimpse into their ancient rituals and behaviors. It's truly awe-inspiring to imagine these colossal beings ruling over our planet. "The Last Days of the Dinosaurs - Time of Great Change" reminds us that even these mighty creatures faced challenges and eventually met their demise. Their extinction marked a turning point in Earth's history, paving the way for new life forms to emerge. The majestic Triceratops stands tall among its prehistoric peers. With its distinctive three-horned face and sturdy build, it was undoubtedly one of nature's most formidable creations. Don't forget to visit the Natural History Shop before you leave.

Marvel at the intricately detailed Crystal Palace Dinosaur Models that bring these ancient beasts back to life once more. Each model is meticulously crafted, allowing us to appreciate their sheer magnitude and beauty up close. Transport yourself into another era as you immerse yourself in scenes from Wealden Times – envisioning what life would have been like alongside Brachiosaurus dinosaurs grazing peacefully in lush landscapes. Waterhouse Hawkins' model dinosaurs from 1866 showcase his pioneering efforts in recreating these extinct giants with scientific accuracy. His work continues to inspire generations today. Witness Diplodocus gracefully roaming across vast plains while Polacanthus showcases its impressive armor-like spikes for defense against predators. And let's not forget about Corythosaurus with its elaborate crest that surely made heads turn during its time.
