This museam is pretty cool, they have a three story display of dinosaurs that are anamatronic and move, there is a waterfall that does an "Arizona flash flood" every so often as well. In the back you can do your own dino dig. On the side, you can check out the wild west of Arizona. Be in an old western movie, and learn all about films that were made in Arizona.
