Thailand is roaring into the global spotlight once again, and this time with dinosaurs. The much-anticipated Jurassic World: The Experience officially opens today, August 8, at Asiatique Bangkok, coinciding with the international release of Jurassic World: Rebirth. Together, the immersive attraction and blockbuster film are expected to give Thailand’s tourism industry a major boost.

Shot across the country’s stunning southern provinces, including Krabi, Phang Nga, and Trang, the film showcases Thailand’s natural beauty to a global audience. From towering limestone cliffs to beautiful bays and remote beaches, these cinematic landscapes are already drawing fans who are eager to walk in the footsteps of their favorite prehistoric stars.

The Department of Tourism reports that Jurassic World: Rebirth is one of the highest-budget foreign films ever made in Thailand, with a production investment of over 400 million baht (roughly $12.2 million). With major productions like this and HBO’s The White Lotus: Season 3 choosing Thailand as a filming location, the country is quickly solidifying its place as a top destination for both moviemakers and moviegoers.

Jurassic World: The Experience

Jurassic World: The Experience in Bangkok offers visitors a fully immersive adventure into the world of the film. Lasting about 60 to 90 minutes, the attraction features set recreations, interactive exhibits, and a dynamic journey that brings the Jurassic World universe to life.

Alongside the attraction, guests can dine at Fossil & Flame, the first-ever Jurassic World-themed restaurant outside of a theme park. Here, you’ll enjoy immersive dining and themed menus inspired by the blockbuster franchise.

Tickets start at THB 579, which is approximately $18 USD, and can be purchased online and on-site.

Stockholm: Copenhagen’s Bigger, Bluer Cousin
Architecture, Building, Spire

Copenhagen and Stockholm are often paired on Scandinavian itineraries, which makes complete sense. Both are handsome waterfront capitals packed with boats, bicycles, top-tier public transport, serious museums, and a population that seems constitutionally incapable of designing an ugly chair.

But they aren’t interchangeable.

National Dog Day Is Around the Corner. These Hotels Will Happily Welcome Your Fur Baby
Animal, Canine, Mammal

There’s only one thing I hate about traveling. It’s not the flight delays; delays mean more time to sit at the bar before boarding time. It’s not the long lines at security or going through customs; gotta love TSA PreCheck and Global Entry. And it’s not waiting at baggage claim. I never check a bag. The flight back is different because sometimes you’re forced to check your bag.

If this story’s headline didn’t give it away, then let me clue you in on what I hate about traveling: It’s leaving my dog, Stella, behind. She’s a 5-year-old English bulldog who is my shadow when I’m home. There are no U.S. or European airlines that will accept my 54-pound dog, never mind that she’s an emotional support animal. Earlier this year, during a 12-day road trip along Route 66 from Santa Monica to Chicago, Stella stayed behind because we had to fly from Austin, Texas, to Los Angeles to kick off the road trip. If you’re a dog parent, you understand that those 12 days can feel like 12 weeks.
