A Blog for Dinosaur Loving Families and Tourists in South Korea
Do you love Dinosaurs? Are you the parent or spouse of a Dinosaur lover? Or just love feeling transported through time … to the Jurassic or Cretaceous periods?
Korea has many diverse opportunities for dinosaur lovers. In the following list of locations, it will be easy for you to select the specific dinosaur experience you prefer. While I tried to highlight locations close to Humphreys, there are quite a few locations for those who like to vacation further south.
Indoor / Kid Cafes with a Dinosaur Theme:
Starting close to Pyeongtaek, two very cool kids cafes exist with that celebrate dinosaurs. These kids’ cafes are perfect for families with young children. One dinosaur-themed kids cafe is in Dunpo, Asan and the other is in Sosabeol, Pyeongtaek. Both of these dinosaur-themed cafes will ignite the imagination of your little dinosaur lovers. Then you can sit back and watch their minds and hearts light up as they discover new things.

OutdoorDinosaur Parks and Theme parks
Dinosaur-themed parks are scattered across South Korea. I’ve visited almost all of them with my family and I’ve organized them (mostly) by distance from Camp Humphreys in Paengseong, Pyeongtaek. With my blogs, I try to keep the recommendations easy for families living near Pyeongtaek or in popular family vacation destinations within South Korea. For example, I’ve included a recommendation in Jeju that will be perfect for your next holiday.
If you don’t live near Pyeongtaek, you can easily find out how far these locations are from you using the South of Seoul smartphone app with organized content based on its distance from you!
Additionally, you can leave your reviews for each of these Dinosaur adventures in South Korea so that more families and tourists in South Korea can bring learning about dinosaurs to life.
