Visit to Indroda Nature Education Sanctuary - Gandhinagar

Indroda Dinosaur and Fossil Park is a precious treasure spread over an area of about 400 hectares on either bank of Sabarmati river in Gandhinagar, the capital of Gujarat. It is considered to be the second largest hatchery of dinosaur eggs in the world. Regarded as India's Jurrasic Park, it is run by the Gujarat Ecological Education and Research Foundation (GEER), and is the only dinosaur museum in the country. The park consists of a zoo, massive skeletons of sea mammals like the blue whale, as well as a vast botanical garden, amphitheatre, interpretation center and camping facilities. It also has a Wilderness Park which is home to innumerable species of birds, reptiles, hundreds of nilgais, langurs and peafowls in its vast forest. 

Indroda park is a very well organized park with Bilingual signages and an information panel on each animal. It has various information graphic solutions to explain the origins of the dinosaurs at the dinosaur exhibit. The park is also well know for its vast habitat cages for its variety of animals.
