The Ark Encounter in Kentucky.

The ark is huge -- you really stand in awe when up close. The lighting inside is yellow, so things can be a bit difficult to read. The displays of living areas, work areas, animal areas, kitchen areas are very well done.
The outside has beautiful gardens, a large playground for children, and a small zoo and petting area. There is also an indoor carousel included with your admission.

Full-size replica of the Biblical Ark lets you experience what must have been epic events to Noah's family. The tranquil setting allows you to enjoy at your own pace. There is an outside mini-zoo, a zip-line, and a buffet in the two-story rustic restaurant.

Ironically, Noah's Ark does not allow animals in the Ark.
[Randy Langston, 01/18/2018]Noah's Ark is not visitor pet-friendly. The attraction brushes aside the pungency problem from thousands of creatures on a windowless Ark, but during our visit there was a one live donkey on temporary display in a pen on the second deck. You could smell it from 100 cubits away.
