From Fossils to Fairy Tales: Where Dinosaurs and Dragons Share the Garden
A long time ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, the Hunter Valley was a land of volcanoes and untamed wilderness. Every Easter school holidays Hunter Valley Gardens brings that ancient world back to life with its annual Mega Creatures event. Explorers, both young and old, can wander the Gardens, discovering towering dinosaurs, giant insects, and this year, for the first time, mythical dragons, shimmering unicorns, and legendary beasts that step straight out of storybooks.
