DinoPark is Chișinău's go-to dinosaur theme park for kids — 30+ life-size sculptures (red-mouthed T-Rex, brontosaurus, triceratops, raptors) placed along circular trails through the forest off Calea Ieșilor. Each stop has an info panel in three languages with species, era and actual size. Beyond the dinosaurs there's a play zone with small trampolines, a snack bar for parents, ticketed taxi-meter rides and resting benches under the trees. A visit lasts 1–2 hours — perfect for a Saturday outing with kids aged 3–10. Limited winter hours — check the schedule. Crowded on Sunday afternoons.

“The park was very much fun, with a lot of dinosaurs, roaring ones too, playgrounds, popcorn, cotton candy, sweets, drinks, etc. A big variety of activities and body art. The price for adults was 130 lei, for kids up to 12 it was 120 lei (June, 2024), for younger I imagine it is cheaper. Good place to spend time with kids.”
“The park is interesting for children, but the price is high considering the fact that the dinosaurs and the play equipment are in poor condition: torn and broken. The toilet is extremely dirty. We visited the park last year and the situation was exactly the same. Apparently the high entrance fees are not used for the maintenance of the place.”
“Kids were happy , but there are a lot of things you can improve to make it a better place to visit again. (WC, personal, kids interaction , security, etc. )”
- Crowded on Sunday afternoons — go in the morning or on a weekday
