Ripley's Moving Theater - Gatlinburg

Ripley's Moving Theater

Ripley's Moving Theater

Ripley owns alot of attractions downtown. This one is also located on the parkway. I have not been to this attraction yet, but it seems very popular. I shows two movies in 3D and has surround sound. You are suppose to "move" to the movie. Ripleys offers discounts on combo tickets to their attractions also!!!!!

Address: 904 Parkway in Gatlinburg

Directions: $10.95 per person and there is a height limit.

Ripleys

Ripleys Believe it or Not

This is the usual "believe it or not" stuff just like in the book. I went once and enjoyed it, but its not something you would do over and over. Like stated in the Theater page, they do offer combo tickets if you want to do more than one Ripleys attraction.

Address: 800 Parkway in Gatlinburg

Directions: $12.95 adults, $7.95 kids, and 5 and under is free!!!

Aquarium at night during Winterfest - Gatlinburg

Aquarium at night during Winterfest

Ripley's Aquarium

The aquarium was opened in Dec. 2000. It is one of the best aquariums in the country. There is over 300 feet of underwater tunnel that you go through on a conveyor and a wonderful childrens area. I highly recommend visiting the Ripleys Aquarium!!!
