If the new arena show Walking with Dinosaurs isn’t your thing, just hop on an elevator to the top of Roppongi Hills and check out this “dinosaur museum in the skies.” 23 species of the “terrible lizards” are recreated on a stage 250 meters above Tokyo. Many hail from Argentina’s Ischigualasto Provincial Park, including the Frenguellisaurus, one of the earliest to walk the earth. CG videos and a dinosaur-themed bar and restaurant complete the attractions.
