The Natural Heritage Center was established to help visitors learn about the value and importance of natural heritages through exhibitions and education on the methodical study of natural heritages. Fossils of dinosaur eggs and footprints along with animal and plant specimens and many other natural heritages are on display. With the guide of professional researchers, young visitors can learn more about natural heritages through hands-on activities, video education and many other experiential programs that are only provided at the Natural Heritage Center. The center is developing more exhibitions through academic exchanges with UNESCO and various international organizations specializing in natural heritages.
