1. Orlando, Florida
The Holy Land Experience
You didn't think the town that has the house of mouse would have Christian links, did you? However, this city is full of wonders. If you want to get away but still go to the other theme parks, you can connect with God by going to this interactive experience. This is the perfect place for families, where children can witness the stories of the bible live and in person. From interactive theater to educational exhibits, you can remind your children that God is everywhere - even on vacation. 
A 2,000 seat church auditorium and an adventure land are just two of the many attractions this Christian "theme park" houses. Children and adults will enjoy a day full of things to do. With so many hotels at your disposal, this makes for the perfect vacation spot if you're looking to connect even closer with God.

2. Petersburg, KY
The Creation Museum
Just like the Holy Land Experience but even MORE educational, this attraction in a small town in Kentucky attracts thousands each year. Step inside the Creation Museum and experience a zoo, planetarium, adventure course, stunning biblical history exhibits, and more! If you were ever looking for a museum that has literally everything you could want - this is it!
