Noah’s Ark Hong Kong is an educational children’s activity with a genuine ark just like in the bible – and it’s huge! They claim this is the world’s first ‘full scale’ replica although we’re not sure how to substantiate that claim. The Christian themed kid’s park is best suited to young children, although there is enough to occupy toddlers up to 10-year-olds. It’s kitsch in places but it does a good job of promoting sustainability, care for the environment and our fellow humans.
There are 3 layers to the ark, each with something interesting and educational to discover. On one floor there’s a hand’s on archaeological activity, on another is a short 4D movie about the great flood that Noah endured.

Fun for kids of all ages
Suitable for toddlers and small children, there's a Treasure House gallery with lots of bright displays explaining subjects, such as Plants, the Universe, Music, Robots and Languages. There’s also a Nature Garden with replica animals (walking 2-by-2, of course).
For older children, there's a solar observatory with a high power telescope with information about our solar system, a section to make your own gadgets and the opportunity to cook food using the power of the sun. Kids who want more physical games will love Adventureland with a fun rope course to swing through.
