The Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Ky last week celebrated its five-year anniversary and announced plans for a new Tower of Babel attraction. The Ark Encounter is an attraction that is a museum and life-size replica of Noah’s Ark.
Next year, they will begin fundraising for a Tower of Babel exhibit.
The Tower of Babel exhibit, hopefully, will open in three to four years. “Among other things, we will help people understand what genetics research and the Bible say about the origin of all the people groups around the world,” Ham the founder said.
“I can assure you: It will be a fascinating, eye-opening attraction.” They are going to add a scale model in 2022 or 2023 “of what Jerusalem may have looked like at the time of Christ.” A themed carousel for children will “hopefully” open by summer 2022, Ham said.
They added a $3 million virtual reality experience, Truth Traveler, to the Ark Encounter. It was funded by a supporter. “It’s outfitted with special-effects seats that move; people put on special VR headsets to enjoy an immersive experience as they travel back to the time of Noah. The experience is like having a ride.”
The Ark Encounter will feature “40 days and nights of gospel music” Aug. 2–Sept. 10.
The Ark encounter is a full-size Noah Ark that is 510 feet long, 51 feet high, and 85 feet wide, the measurements in the Bible of the original Ark God told Noah to build.

Genesis 6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
Genesis 6:15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
Genisis 6:16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
For Christians, instead of wasting your money and promoting evil by going to worldly theme parks, this is a place for a family vacation that is Christian-inspired.
1 John 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
