Dino World at Galerie Harfa, Prague 9

Activities on 10 February 2011 by Darina

Only till the end of February can you visit this unique DINO World Exhibition featuring moving and roaring Dinos. From the beginning of March it will be moved to the roof of the Galerie Harfa shopping mall. So you have 2 weeks to enjoy the exhibition in comfort indoors. Also, not all the Dinos will be moved to the new rooftop space and most will be static, so GO, don’t hesitate, its great fun.

It is the best to wait in front of the cashiers for the Movie cycle to finish, that way you can start your Dino journey beginning with the 3D movie about a little Dino. The poor thing looses its parents and eventually finds Dino’s of the same species and gets adopted. It is moving and the kids loved it.

It was a bit weird walking into this empty room, without chairs and with plain wooden walls… it wouldn’t hurt to place few stools and cushions on the floor for the kids. The movie takes 15 min and you feel tired standing there after 2 minutes so we made ourselves comfortable on the floor.

At the end of March the cinema will be moved to the DINO shop which is on the first floor, a 2 min walk form the current DINO world. Marketing wise it’s a strange decision to move the cinema so far from Dino World and miss all the motivated buyers who finish their tour of the exhibition.

The display itself isn’t big but leaves a huge impression on the kids. Our Nikki had big respect of the roaring and moving T-Rex. Apart from T-Rex there are: Mamenchisaurus, Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, Amargasaurus, Compsognathus, Shunosaurus and Pteranodon. If it means anything to you!

A marketing catch was awaiting us right after we made our exit. Color Tattoos sprayed on your skin in many shapes including Dinos. First the kids had it done. After thinking about it… I had it done too…. and not miss out, my husband had one done too! Smart marketing move. The Tattoos actually lasted for few days and the boys were truly proud of theirs.

To complete our mission of discovering what the recently opened Galerie Harfa has to offer, we found out there is an Indoor Playground on the first floor. It is part of a Bambule Toy Shop and you have to walk through the shop to get there.

It is very spacious with a classic setup - babysitting kids from 3years +, younger ones have to go in with a guardian. It has a slide, ball pool, craft area as well as many toys and a huge carpet to play on.

Worth a mention - Harfa hosts a Farmer’s Markets on the roof of the Mall. Here you will also find the seating area for numerous cafes and an outdoor playground so you can easily sit there in sun and chill out…

We will go there when they move the DINO World up here and cover it for you again - dear readers. So stay tuned!
