In
quality of construction and theming, the
Holy Land Experience compares favorably
with some of the finest museums found anywhere
in America. And in terms of Christ-honoring
Christian venues, we believe it sets a new
standard.
In purpose, the Holy Land
Experience is a world apart. While both
fun and exciting for the whole family, its
singular purpose is to provide answers to
life's most important questions: Where did
I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going?
What is life really all about?
In
fulfillment of purpose, the Holy Land experience
has been totally dependent on God for his
provision and direction. We have been humbled
to be a part of it. We would be truly honored
to have you visit us at the Holy Land Experience
here in beautiful Orlando, Florida. Come
join us for the journey of a lifetime!
Shows and Attractions at
Holy
Land Experience
The Wilderness Tabernacle
This 25-minute show takes place
indoors around a re-creation of the portable
tabernacle carried by Moses and his people
as they wandered in the wilderness following
their deliverance from Egypt, as described
in the Old Testament. A live actor, accompanied
by a few lighting, projection, and sound
effects, acts out a portion of the ceremony
of animal sacrifice as a narrator describes
the rites. Near the end of the show a whirlpool
of carbon dioxide and fog juice stands in
for God making an appearance over the Ark
of the Covenant. As a finale a projected
image of the nativity appears to tie the
ancient Jewish rites to Jesus as their fulfillment
as Messiah.
Orlando of Life
The 25-minute film The Seed of Promise,
accompanied by a few in Orlando lighting
effects, carries on the theme of Christ
as the ultimate sacrifice. It opens with
the priests continuing to sacrifice as the
Romans invade the temple in A.D. 70, intercut
with a rather graphic depiction of Jesus
being nailed to the cross. A flashback to
the Garden of Eden is next, followed by
the story of Abraham and the near sacrifice
of Isaac and then back to the crucifixion
and resurrection, presented as the ultimate
sacrifice.
The Jerusalem Model
Said to be the largest indoor model
of Jerusalem in the world, this detailed
scale display depicts the city in A.D. 66.
Half-hour lectures discuss the development
of the city and use the model to trace the
movements of Jesus in his final days.
The Plaza of Nations
Roman columns surround this plaza in
front of the imposing Herodian Temple. A
biblical musical drama, Today's the Day
is presented on the steps of the temple
several times a day.
Calvary's Garden
Tomb
This display re-creates Jesus'
open and empty tomb in a setting that includes
plants and trees indigenous to the Holy
Land. A musical presentation about the resurrection
is held here several times a day.
