Chief Minister Subhendu Adhikari held an administrative meeting in Digha a few days ago. He gave a message to decorate the beach town in a new way to attract tourists. After that, Jurassic Park, one of the attractions of Digha, is going to return in a new form. Although this park has been closed in Science City for a long time. As a result, visitors were deprived of the opportunity to travel to the wonderful world of dinosaurs. Keeping that in mind, it has been decided to make the park more attractive with the touch of modern technology. At the same time, it is said that the work of making it informative and audience friendly has started. Along with the sea and the Jagannath temple, a fragment of the wonderful world billions of years ago awaits the tourists visiting Digha. Currently renovation and beautification work has started in various parts of the park.
Assistant Public Relations Executive Kusumita Chakraborty said, the park will again become attractive and popular for tourists as before.
Note that this amusement park called Jurassic Park was launched in 2010. This park is opened in the area surrounded by trees behind the Digha Science Center. There, the presentation of the origin of dinosaurs, its evolution, life style, extinction-stages, all through fancy lights and sounds fascinated the audience. It became very attractive to tourists in a very short time. However, the park was closed a decade ago due to some mechanical reasons. To give a new dimension to the earlier popularity, the authorities have moved forward to modernize the park.
At that time, several artificial trees were planted in the park, starting with palm trees, suitable for the environment in which the dinosaurs roamed. Spectators could hear the dinosaur’s running and its booming calls with a special light and sound system. Information was recorded on the walls of the walkthrough along with various illustrations so that tourists could learn about the dinosaurs in detail. But, after the closure of the park, it fell into disrepair for a long time. The dinosaur models are falling apart. Officials said existing models of dinosaurs are planned to be newly maintained and reconstructed as well as creating a richer experience for the visitors. Through advanced technology and light and sound, the wonderful chapter of the prehistoric world will be presented in a new way. 3-D screens will be installed in the park. On that screen, the origin, lifestyle, evolution, extinction of dinosaurs will be revealed. First there were moving dinosaurs. Now it won’t move. Each dinosaur will have a switch on it. Visitors can learn about that species of dinosaur by pressing the switch. Roads have been constructed for the visitors. There are railings on both sides. The work of making the walkthrough through which the tourists will reach the park is also going on fast.
The Science Center is a popular science center in Eastern India, managed by the Rashtriya Samharalaya Parishad under the Ministry of Culture, Government of India. There are galleries in three categories – Life Science, Fun Science and Reflection. Each has a variety of items. There is the Space and Astronomy Centre.

Every day a large number of tourists, students, science minded people come to know and experience science. Hamlet Guriya, Curator of the Science Center, said that with the help of advanced technology, the work of renovating the park has started. The soon-to-be-opened park will offer a unique blend of science and fantasy. Assistant Public Relations Executive Kusumita Chakraborty said, the park will again become attractive and popular for tourists as before.
