A multi-million dinosaur museum is to be built in Heyuan in eastern Guangdong Province. Many archaeological discoveries have been unearthed in the area over the years including dinosaurs and egg fossils.

The museum will cost an estimated 500 million yuan (US$60.75 million). Construction work will begin early next year and take three years to complete. On display will be the 9,800 dinosaur egg fossils dug up in that area.

The museum, specifically for dinosaur fossils, will be the first on the Chinese mainland.
