The movie "Jurassic World" only takes 6 minutes at the beginning, depicting a dangerous dinosaur era where the weak and the strong preyed on the strong. As the plot progresses, the dinosaur era slowly unfolds in front of us.
In a certain sea area on the earth, two people are driving a tool similar to a "spaceship submarine" looking for something on the bottom of the sea. When the huge skeleton of Tyrannosaurus rex appears in sight, it arouses the curiosity of the viewers.
The scene switched to the land, with huge waves on the sea surface, strong wind mixed with heavy rain, and lightning and thunder in the sky, as if to indicate that something big was about to happen.
As time went by, a strong Tyrannosaurus rex appeared in the light, which drove people to flee.
When the fugitive grabbed the ladder on the helicopter and kept away from the dinosaur, just when he thought he was happy to seize the chance of escape, a big bloody mouth suddenly appeared from the sea, leaped up, and swallowed the person in the mouth. It can be clearly seen that this is a "monster" whose upper body looks like a dinosaur and its lower body looks like a fish.
At this point, the whole movie slowly begins...
There are many people who know the age of dinosaurs, but there is a more mysterious and longer era than the age of dinosaurs, which few people know. It is the era that hides the secret of the origin of life - the Cambrian period.
At this point, I found a strange phenomenon. There are many film and television works with the dinosaur era as the theme, but there are no film and television works about the Cambrian Period, which represents the origin of life.
Now, on the north bank of Fuxian Lake in Chengjiang, Yunnan, the world-renowned original site of the Cambrian fossil site - Chengjiang Maotian Mountain, there is a modern "Chengjiang Fossil Site Natural Museum", which will take you into the world 264 million years earlier than the Triassic. In the Cambrian Period 5.14 years ago, explore the origin of life.

The Mysterious Cambrian Period 514 Million Years Ago
According to research, paleontologists call this time period between 492 million and 514 million years ago the "Cambrian Period".
The Cambrian period was the beginning of the Phanerozoic universe. At that time, all life existed in the ocean, and the pattern of the earth was not like it is today. The whole earth is like the chaotic era after Pangu created the world in the mythology.
The Cambrian period is one of the most important eras in paleontology, and it is the most important link in the history of the origin and development of life.
Because life in this era has already begun to appear!
Standing in the 21st century and looking back to the past, analyze why the Cambrian is important and why:
The Cambrian period allows us to understand where life originated, when and how it evolved, and let us know more about where we come from!
Three major Cambrian fossil sites in the world
From a global perspective, the number of Cambrian fossils is very small. So far, there are only three in the world, namely the Ediacaran fauna in Australia, the Burgess biota in Canada, and the Chengjiang fossil group in China.
Among them, the earliest discovery was the Australian Ediacaran fauna, and the discovery of this fossil group also set off the research on the "Cambrian" in the paleontological community.
Of the three major Cambrian fossil sites in the world, Australia and Canada each have one seat, and China has one seat. The Chinese fossil site is located in Chengjiang, Yunnan.
The richness of species and the degree of preservation of the Chengjiang fossil group in China are unmatched by any place, and it is the first fossil world heritage in my country. Once discovered, it shocked the world. People from Chinese and foreign paleontology research circles flocked to it. It is known as "20 One of the most astonishing discoveries of the century".
Chengjiang Fossil Land Natural Museum
Our focus is on the Chengjiang Fossil Group in China, which is located in Yunnan Province, one of the three provinces in Southwest China. The specific location is on Maotian Mountain near Fuxian Lake in Chengjiang City, Yuxi. Tourist place".
The Chengjiang Fossil Group has gained a reputation in the paleontology world, but it is unknown in the tourism world. In recent years, it has gradually become popular in the tourism world. More and more people realize its charm, and there is an endless stream of people going to check in!
2020 is a watershed year, because before that, there was only one museum built on Maotian Mountain. After that, two museums appeared on Maotian Mountain, a new museum and an old museum.
From the discovery of the Chengjiang fossil group to today, a total of more than 200 kinds of paleontological fossils have been discovered, and these fossils have recorded the secret of the "Cambrian explosion of life", and their scientific research value is immeasurable.
In order to allow more people to personally experience the charm of the origin of life on the original site, a new museum named "Chengjiang Fossil Land Natural Museum" appeared on Maotian Mountain.
The Natural Museum of Chengjiang Fossil Land is located in the Cambrian town of Yunnan, Happy World. On the top of the highest mountain in the town, the new museum is not far from the old museum. As soon as the new museum appeared, it immediately became the most important cultural center in the town. The core, where various types of fossils found from the surrounding area are displayed.
Judging from the town's name "Yunnan Cambrian Town·Happy World", we can also see the status of the "Cambrian" element in the entire town.
The overall shape of the Natural Museum of Chengjiang Fossil Land presents an "oval" shape, overlooking from a high altitude, with smooth and round lines and unique shapes, which are very artistic and modern.
Walking into the museum, you will find that the interior layout of the museum is more modern. Various high-tech technologies: 3D, projection, and VR are all reflected in the museum. With the effect of lights and shadows, a mysterious Cambrian period is clearly restored. in sight.
Inside the museum, in addition to viewing fossils, using "technological means" to return to the Cambrian is the biggest highlight here. The immersive and interactive experience presents the picture of the Cambrian in an original way.
Shuttle through the various sections of the museum, modern technology helps visitors break the constraints of time and space, allowing you to be in the Cambrian, as if this era can be seen, touched, heard, played, and appreciated.
Through modern technology, historical knowledge and cultural aesthetics are no longer boring, so that everyone can feel that "the Cambrian came alive", and lament that cold fossils and technology can complement each other so well.
Although the Natural Museum of Chengjiang Fossil Land is mainly based on "Cambrian" elements, it is not only Cambrian fossils, there are many sections in the museum, where you can see many scenes that you can't usually see.
The rainforest landscape with towering ancient trees, the savannah landscape with low trees, and the snow-covered polar landscape make everyone who walks here be amazed by the layout of the museum and the authenticity of the scenes.
From dinosaur fossils to skulls in the history of human evolution, everything can be found here. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the "microscopic nature".
