The Holy Land Experience

The Holy Land Experience is a living, biblical history museum that takes you 7,000 miles away and 3,000 years back in time to the land of the Bible.

Its unique combination of sights, sounds, and tastes stimulate your senses and blend together to create a spectacular, new experience. But above all, beyond the fun and excitement, it is our sincere hope that you will see God and His Word exalted - that you will be encouraged in your search for enduring truth and the ultimate meaning of life. The Holy Land Experience is a Bible-believing, Christ-centered ministry.

It's Educational
There are many wonderful things to learn at The Holy Land Experience. From the moment you pass through the gates of our "walled city," you will be immersed in ancient Jerusalem. The structures and exhibits at The Holy Land Experience characterize the style, the architecture, and the settings that existed in the Holy Land 2,000 years ago. The Garden Tomb, the Qumran Dead Sea Caves, the Plaza of the Nations, the Temple of the Great King, the Jerusalem Model, and the Wilderness Tabernacle are intricately detailed, both inside and out, to provide you with a clearer understanding of their biblical significance.

It's Inspirational
Imagine entering an exact replica of the Garden Tomb where the body of the Lord Jesus Christ was buried. In reverence, you approach the Tomb where He emerged victorious over death. Then, at the grand entrance to the spectacular Plaza of the Nations, walk under a massive archway and behold the gleaming white stone plaza surrounding you with its 30 Roman columns crowned with gold capitals. All of this grandeur majestically frames the imposing Temple of the Great King, the place held in highest reverence among the Jewish people. It is truly a breathtaking representation of the Temple that once stood on hallowed Mt. Moriah in first-century Jerusalem. Gathering under this towering 6-story Temple, you will sense the awe-inspiring splendor that the Jewish people experienced as they assembled in this sacred place so many years ago.

It's Theatrical
Our "cast" of dramatists will recount many of the events that transpired during this pivotal period of human history. Brief dramatic presentations throughout the day will be augmented with special music and theatrical events by our staff musicians and special guests. In the Theater of Life, inside the Temple, experience the thrill of a powerfully stirring new film, "The Seed of Promise," produced on location in the Holy Land. It depicts the wonderful plan of God's redemption. Inside the Wilderness Tabernacle, join other guests on a remarkable high-tech, multimedia exploration of Israel's ancient priesthood, which points to Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. Additionally, the authentically designed Oasis Palms Cafe offers a tasty Middle-Eastern meal to add flavor to your experience.

It's Historical
The Scriptorium: Center for Biblical Antiquities is one of the most unique facilities of its kind in the world. This 18,000-square-foot museum, built in fourth-century Byzantine architectural style, houses the finest private collection of authentic biblical artifacts in the world. Inside, ancient cuneiform, scrolls, manuscripts, and Bibles  many of which are extremely rare or the only known copies in existence  are available for you to see up close. Each treasured piece is exhibited in the historical and geographical environment out of which it came. The Scriptorium takes you on a magnificent journey as it exalts God's Word and charts its preservation throughout history.

Closed Thanksgiving and Christmas.
