390 Noah's Ark Replica, Williamstown, Kentucky, USA

Ark Encounter features a full-size Noah’s Ark, built according to the dimensions given in the Bible. Spanning 510 feet long, 85 feet wide, and 51 feet high, this modern engineering marvel is amazing.
I spent two hours exploring it. If you read everything you could easily spend a week!

Maybe .. KEN Hamm ??!

Went to a family reunion years ago in Kentucky and we decided to take a detour on way home to visit. If I remember correctly it was the year it opened. It was awesome.

It's close enough

VISITED SUMMER 2020 ATTENDANCE WAS LOW AND I WORRIED THIS CREATION WOULD NOT SURVIVE THE DOWNTURN. YOU GET OUT OF THE CAR AND DROP YOUR MOUTH FROM SEEING THE UNBELIEVABLE! WHAT DEDICATION TO DETAIL IN ALL ARENAS TO LEARN AND BECOME AWARE OF...THE MIRACLE OF NOAH AND THE ARK!

The ramp is replica , I believe as to show how Noah got everything in & out!

I saw the ark about 2yrs after it opened , it was still in a rough start up shape . Ok , had a hard time with the dinosaur thing , only cause I’m an archeology buff . That being said , main stream has had to admit over the last couple of years they’ve found dinosaur bones buried with ppl bones in mudslides and such , actually found the humans about 7ft under them in 1 case . If anything I’ve believed it helps prove the Bible over evolution theory.

I've gone like 2 or 3 times with my kids. This is an absolutely amazing engineering masterpiece. The problem is that we think we are so much smarter today and that is just simply not true. Technology has made us arrogant, less intelligent, and prideful. It's so hard for me to watch movies or anything that has the Ark because people try to rationalize what they think. One perfect example is this. I like teaching young people and one of my most favorite questions I love to ask them is do they think the Ark had leaks? Many times when we watch anything concerning the Ark, they show it as some rickety boat with leaks and it just seemed like a miserable place. I, on the other hand don't believe any of this garbage. My first thing that I go to is this. The Lord told Noah to come into the Ark, not go in. The Lord said "Come in" which to me means the Lord was inside. Then, as far as leaks were concerned, I say absolutely tight. We are taught that "Pitch" is like a tar that helps seal. Which, technically speaking, that's exactly what it is. However, when I learned the Biblical definition of "Pitch" it blew me away. I'm sure you have probably already know this but I love talking about it because it's just another reason of how gracious and amazing our Lord God is. When I saw that "Pitch" means "Atonement " that made me understand that there were absolutely no leaks because there are no leaks in His Atonement that the Lord God has given us through Christ Jesus. He called Noah and told him to come into the Ark that had been sealed with His Atonement, and He shut them in. And the Lord says that he opens doors that no man can shut and He closes doors that no man can open. Thank you so very much for sharing your experiences of your trip with us as viewers. Your commentary was entertaining and I really enjoyed it. God Bless you and your beautiful family. I may not know you and I will probably never meet you personally but I just want to tell you, that I love you. How can we call ourselves brothers and not love one another? Especially, with the injustice and the hatred being spread throughout our country. How an any of us hate one another when we all go back to those three sons that the Lord saved in that huge engineering and architectural masterpiece. I'm sorry about writing a novel, but your video has thoroughly been a blessing to me this morning. Please pray for our country because there is an evil at work that is trying to destroy our country. Pray for our leaders, both current and further. I don't know where you stand politically but I personally, stand with the Lord Jesus Christ. I love this Country and I will defend her, and if necessary, lay down my life because I believe this is what the Lord would have Hjs people do. I think about that Ark and I think of how horrible things must have been for God to move in that manner. We are sliding bad in America and we have got to remain faithful and strong. Brother, I don't know what tomorrow brings but I sure know who is in control of tomorrow. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Sorry about the novel. Thank you again for your video and God Bless you.

What's with the pride rainbow on the archway entrance?

[@RickFidelisReed]

It's not such.. The Pride flag has been hiJacked the rainbow from when God promised to never again cover the earth with water.

[@josephscala6707]

Dinosaurs? On Noah's Ark??

[@Mediocre_JT]

Yep. The same way God scattered people and confused languages, he did the same with animals, placed them in their best habitat for survival after the water finished dropping. They were only eggs to 40 days old. I believe he moved the young dinosaurs to the jungles, but even with that much vegetation, they still went extinct, it's no comparison to pre-flood vegetation. There are still many people that claimed there were dinosaurs living in the jungles of Africa and South America, Forrest Galante did a segment on them, I don't think any survived the past 500 or so years, or what we know to be dinosaurs, animals go extinct every day. Around the real Noah's ark sight at Mt Ararat, there are stone fences now falling, some were huge, big enough to hold small dinosaurs.

[@Mediocre_JT]

Like the giant tortoises of Galapagos islands with no known predators, perfect habitat. No way possible they could have walked that far from Turkey. There's still a photo floating around of some men from the late 1800s holding up a pterodactyl.

[@Mediocre_JT]

"The Scientific Truth about Creation, Flood, and Evolution" is a great documentary that was just released, it's on YT, talks about how it all happened.

[@dimokokilala8950]

Sorry this is not a replica. This is not what Noah's ark looked like. Right off the bat the outside is wrong. A "replica" is an exact copy. 1. The real exterior Noah's ark was made from Cypress wood 2. And it's sealed by tar which is black. Don't believe everything you see and read nowadays folks

[@RickFidelisReed]

@@dimokokilala8950 I agree. With no means of propulsion there is no need for the shape of the bow. The bubble is a modern invention.
