One of the places in Cave City I really, really wanted to visit was Dinosaur World. I LOVE giant roadside dinosaurs and with one beckoning me from the side of the highway I couldn’t not go. Dinosaur World boasts over 150 life size dinosaurs on 20 acres of property. This place is insanely awesome. The dinosaurs are all tucked away in the woods along both sides of a beautiful little path the winds around the property. I took a total of one zillion photos, or something close to that…
Doesn’t it look incredible!? One of the reviews on the Roadside America app complained of the price, saying it wasn’t worth it for adults but I have to disagree on that one. At least five times while we were walking around I exclaimed “this place is soooo cool!” Easily the best dinosaur attraction I have ever been to. Definitely, definitely, definitely worth a stop if you’re ever anywhere near by!

Oh, and Jeff got eaten by a dinosaur. No big deal.
As I was reading over this post before hitting publish I realized it really sounded like a sponsored post, but it is hilariously not. I literally am just that excited about this place. Although, Dinosaur World, if you wanna hook a girl up with passes or something I wouldn’t complain! Hah!

Oh my goodness! I need to come to the states asap.
Heck yeah!
This place looks awesome! I love Dinosaurs and was obsessed when I was younger, wish we had more places like this in the UK.
This place does look super awesome!
This place looks incredible! This is all I can think of when I hear "Dinosaur World" though…

looks like such a cool place to visit:-) i'm glad you had fun! xx
Ahhh, I love this place! Not worth it for adults!? pah! Those people don't know how to party with the dinosaurs, obviously!
Clearly! It was incredible!
This looks like so much fun! I can definitively see why you are this hyped about it. x kayleigh
YES OH MY GOODNESS why have I not been here?! This place looks incredible; if only they let you wander up to the statues to take pictures *with* the dinosaurs up close and personal. ^-^
I mean, you are pretty darn close. Definitely close enough for dino selfies!
I've been wanting to go here!! I wanted to stop at the one in Florida on my way to Miami, but my friend was determined to get home. Is this the one in Kentucky? I'll have to tell Shawn to add it to the list of stops on our road trip we're planning!
Yep, Kentucky! Definitely worth a stop.
Oh my god I am so jealous, this looks like the coolest place ever. We have something similar here called Dan Yr Ogof but I haven't been there in yeaars. Dinosaurs are just too cool <3

Haha I love the last picture! I've been in a Dino mood since I rewarched Jurassic Park the other day. Amazing Dino movie!!
Haha I could tell it was just excitement. We had a dinosaur park not far from here which was similar to that but it was getting pretty old and not too well kept, I think it may have closed down but it was a great place, I would like to go see it, even if it is closed, so long as the dinosaurs were still hanging around – imagine an abandoned dinosaur park!!
There are actually more than a handful of abandoned dinosaur parks around the world – and they're definitely high up on my list of places to visit!!
I totally started humming the Dinosaur World theme song from the movie Clifford while I looked through these photos 🙂 This place looks amazing!
I love Cave City and Dinosaur World! I went there on my 25th birthday with my cousin and sister and we laughed the whole time. Thanks for reminding me of one of my happy memories.
Hah! What an awesome birthday adventure!
It looks amazing! It would be so cool to walk around dinosaur models to scale!
so rad!
OMG! such a cute place!

I never knew this place existed!!! My 11 year old, Jurassic Park loving self is telling me to go there now! I used to want to be a paleontologist. I even helped clean dinosaur bones at the University of Kansas one summer and had this weird khaki outfit I would wear (my uniform:). Thanks for sharing this and here's a link to a picture of me during this phase:) http://thistooisfoundhere.blogspot.com/2013/04/behind-curtain.html
Hope you're having a great day!
Oh my gosh I did not know there were Dinosaur Worlds besides here in FL! I live about 15 mins from the one here and have been there 3 or 4 times. I love it so much! The KY one looks way better though, ours has quite a few dinos chillin on mulch and it looks so out of place. I love that they're actually in the woods/bushes there! Anyway, glad you enjoyed it and I am happy I'm not the only one that loves Dinosaur World 🙂
This is my most favorite blog post in the world!
Gaaaah this place looks AMAZING. I've yet to make it to a roadside dinosaur but it's on the list for sure. People who complain about prices to things like this clearly have no idea how awesome they are 😐
Commenting late but OMIGOD, this looks like the coolest spot! Definitely adding it to our road trip dream list!
Hahhahah that last photo is hilarious! Such a cool and fun place to go to.
