Most dinosaur fossils found on the Korean peninsula aren't bones โ they're footprints and egg nests. Ten sites where those traces alone reconstruct what this land looked like 100 million years ago.
Dinosaur fossils found on the Korean peninsula are overwhelmingly footprints, not bones โ tracks pressed into mud before the flesh decayed and the bones scattered, later hardened into sedimentary rock. Ironically, these traces often tell you more than a skeleton would: not just size, but gait, herd behavior, and habitat. These ten sites hold the clearest surviving examples.
Each site specializes in something different, so pick based on what you actually want to see. For trackways, head to Goseong or Namhae. For egg nests, Boseong. For actual bone fossils, Dangjin. Finish at the Gwacheon National Science Museum, where reconstructions pull all these scattered pieces into a single picture.
