🇦🇺Amazed by the dinosaurs at Melbourne Museum.

Soft light pours into the Melbourne Museum. The moment I stepped into the Dinosaur Walk, I was taken aback by the experience of passing under the enormous torso of a Mamenchisaurus. My hands trembled as I touched the 25-ton femur, and I felt that these were more than just bones; they were a piece of living history. Going further, the figure of Horridus appeared illuminated. It was so impressive that I couldn't believe I'd seen such a vivid Triceratops fossil anywhere else, and I found myself staring at it for a while. And on this day, I was lucky enough to come across a special exhibit of a real T. rex, "Victoria." Watching the carnivorous dinosaur move using AR made me feel like I'd traveled back in time. It felt like I was filled with memories of my summer holidays. #MelbourneMuseum #DinosaurWalk #Horridus #TripcomMoments Melbourne Museum Basic Information • Address: 11 Nicholson St, Carlton (in Carlton Gardens, next to the Royal Exhibition Building) • Opening Hours: Daily 9:00–17:00 (Excluding Christmas and Good Friday) • Admission: $15 for adults, free for those under 16 (members always free) • Facilities: Natural history and cultural exhibits, IMAX theater, cafe, and shop.
