Dinosaur Kingdom II.

Dinosaur Kingdom II

It's Yankees vs. dinosaurs in this alternate history view of the Civil War. The South wins! Another crazy attraction from Mark Cline, builder of Foamhenge. Opened July 2016.

Bigfoot shootout at Dinosaur Kingdom II.

Dinosaur Kingdom II - Bigfoot Shootout

Amazing work of fiberglass artist Mark Cline. Between his creations and having a "Bigfoot Shootout" using water guns, this place is a fun-filled stop. When my wife and I stopped here, we didn't know what to expect. After seeing what was here, Dinosaur Kingdom II proved to be a place we would visit again when in Natural Bridge.

Get Slimed.

Dinosaur Kingdom II

Dinosaur Kingdom II boasts that it is Virginia's top roadside attraction. It is truly a unique experience that adults and kids will enjoy. It tells a chapter of forgotten history, involving dinosaurs, robotics of the Civil War, and even Bigfoot.

Baby Changing Station.

Dinosaur Kingdom II

This is truly a feat of man and worth even a large detour to see. You have the Civil War, dinosaurs, mythological beasts, monsters, blobs, and an epic water gun fight with Bigfoot. Tack on an old west town, trails, AR and a maze, and you still can't imagine how awesome this is. Do it!

King Kong.

Wizard and Dragon

The (former Foamhenge) wizard and a guitar-strumming dragon statue are at Dinosaur Kingdom II, with King Kong. King Kong is not crushing an airplane any more. I'm not sure what he's holding.

[Kathleen, 04/11/2021]

These statues were formerly at Mark Cline's Enchanted Castle Studio. He likes to move his artworks around, so they may not be here for long.
