Why you should go…
The Creation Museum presents a young Earth creationist reading of the Bible across 75,000 square feet of exhibits. You walk past dioramas of the Garden of Eden, dinosaur models and a 30-foot Allosaurus skeleton named Ebenezer, then visit the planetarium and a special effects theater with vibrating seats. Outside are botanical gardens, a zoo, zip lines and walking trails by a lake. It opened in 2007 and is run by Answers in Genesis.
