Numata Fossil Museum
Numata Town
This museum aims to enable visitors to not only view but also experience fossils. The workshop room offers a mini-excavation program to excavate small fossils or crystals from lumps of earth. Items shown in the exhibition room include reconstructed skeletons of extinct creatures whose fossils were discovered in Numata Town. These include a gigantic, 12-meter-long plesiosaur—something that’s sure to thrill dinosaur fans.
