A theme park inspired by Noah’s Ark to open this summer [in Williamstown, Kentucky, USA] — from aleteia.org by Daniel Esparza
“Ark Encounter” in Kentucky will feature a reproduction of the biblical ark

 



Excerpt:

Williamstown, Kentucky, 30 miles south of Cincinnati, is home to Ark Encounter, a theme park whose main attraction is a reproduction, literally of biblical proportions, of the very famous Noah’s ark.

Being 510 feet long (or 300 cubits, strictly following the biblical description of the legendary ship), the ark is already the biggest timber-framed structure in the United States. Actually, its total surface area rises up to 120,000 square feet; that makes it just over twice as large as the White House, and longer than three space shuttles laid end to end — so, yes, you can bet Noah indeed had room for a pair of each animal.
