Explore Creation Museum

 One of the most interesting and informative tourist attraction to visit while you're in Kentucky is the Creation Museum, - more or less like the sister museum of Ark Encounter in Williamstown.

Creation Museum & Ark Encounter offers combo package tickets to visit both places, but they are 40-45 minutes drive away from each other. Creation Museum is located in Greater Cincinnati, off  I-275 in Petersburg, Kentucky.

Creation Museum contains world-class exhibits and brand new cutting-edge exhibits with state-of-the art special effects theater. It's a state-of-the-art museum that allows you to venture and learn about the science and the Bible.







Experience their stunning exhibits and botanical gardens, zoos with live animals, zip lines and planetarium shows.


This is also a place to help you enhance your learning that will help you discover God's creation in a more fun, exciting and memorable way. Just like its sister museum, - Ark Encounter, it purposely teaches about the facts and proofs of the Bible's creation story. Remember to visit this museum with an open mind (including Ark Encounter) because it is purely based on Bible beliefs and faith.

On the other hand, it also shows high-tech exhibits of creation science such as dinosaurs, fossils, planetarium, gardens and more.

So, it is more like an opportunity to learn both faith, history and science and how they intersect.

Tickets can be bought online or onsite. Prices are on their website, together with the times of visits.

Dining is also available at the site.

Experiencing Ark Encounter - The Spectacular Life-Sized Noah's Ark!

This life-sized replica of Noah's ark is considered to be the largest timber-frame structure in the world, towering at 51 ft. high, and 510 ft. long, 85 ft. wide. The measurements they used in this ark replica were the specifications mentioned in the Bible by God through Noah. (Genesis 6:14 -22; 7: 1-10).




It's breath-taking just seeing the size of the ark on the outside with its impressive craftmanship.


The Ark Encounter is not just a museum itself but a unique theme park attraction which opened in Williamstown, Kentucky in 2016. The ark served as the centerpiece of the park. There is a small coffee shop and pastries in deck 2, but there are lots of restaurants and food area outside the ark, a zoo which includes live animals, a zip line, family playground and other exhibits; - basically it's designed as a theme park!


The VR experience is also worth trying, with a fee and it's highly popular. This is one way to enhance your experience by going back in time and witness Noah's days. This is in a separate building called Truth Traveler.

The Answers Center is also another place to learn with a 2,500 seat capacity auditorium where you can enjoy presentations from speakers, music and videos, - all in an air-conditioned comfort seating.

There are lots to do and see here. If you don't want to miss anything one day is not enough!
