ATTRACTIONS


Built over a 40,000 square feet area on three levels, the park resembles a king's palace. The palace has four sections:

  • ''Travel back in time'', where visitors will be able to view 3-D films, and will include moving chairs which take the visitor through an experience centered on the story of ancient Egypt and the era of the Pharaohs.


  • ''The cave of illusions'', an interactive museum with 65 attractions including giant labyrinths, a room of distortions, "test yourself" games, and special optical devices that create holograms.


  • A 360-meter-long ''Biblical cave'', reached via an elevator, 100 feet below the earth, where visitors can watch presentations that tell Biblical stories through sound and movement. After strolling through the mazes, visitors reach the stalactite and stalagmite cave, with waterfalls and deer.


  • A boat ride through ''King Solomon's waterfalls'', designed to recreate elements from King Solomon's era. The 10-minute ride features life-like robotic models of humans and animals that illustrate the stories through sound and movement, and ends in an artificial lake reached through a large waterslide.
