禄丰恐龙博物馆
Displays fossils collected from various sites in Lufeng, including a specimen of Lufengosaurus, a dinosaur species that was first discovered in Lufeng. Besides fossils, the museum also displays bronzeware, ceramics and other human artefacts.
金山古镇
A modern re-creation of Old Jinshan.
黑井古镇
Unlike Old Jinshan Town, this is a real historic town and has numerous old buildings dating from the Ming and Qing dynasties. The town can easily be visited on a day trip, though limited accommodation is available for those who wish to stay overnight.
世界恐龙谷
World Dinosaur Valley is divided into three parts: a hot springs resort, a geological park and a dinosaur-themed amusement park. The geological park is probably the biggest drawcard. It includes a major fossil site where the remains of a huge number of dinosaur skeletons have been discovered. Around 60 of the dinosaur skeletons are on display at a museum built at the site.
Both taxis and buses are available. The most useful bus from a traveller's point of view is probably the no. 10 bus, which goes to World Dinosaur Valley and can also be used to get to the Lufeng Dinosaur Museum.
