Not only that, but here they’ll also be able to come face to face with lifelike giant reptiles that are millions of years old. This rather small museum features ten new animatronic dinosaurs including a pack of vicious Velociraptors that devour a baby Protoceratops and a nine meter long Baryonyx (a rare species of dinosaurs that has ninety six teeth) which uses his teeth and thirty centimeters long claws in order to scoop fish out of water. Tourists with children will also find this museum to be a great place to visit, since it contains a lot of fun scientific insights for children.

The Lincoln Cathedral is by far the finest gothic cathedral in Europe and because of that it’s always packed with curious tourists that want to admire its beauty and delve a bit more in the many stories it has gathered over the millennia. However, even if the cathedral was popular in the past, it has now become even more popular and a much hotter tourist attraction

because it was featured in the Da Vinci Code movie. One of the main things that make this cathedral stand apart though are the legendary Lincoln Imp gargoyle and the fourteenth century stone carvings.
