Massive Replica of Noah's Ark Being Built in Kentucky

Ken Ham had the idea to create the Noah's Ark structure

A devout Christian is spending more than $90million constructing a 510-foot long Noah's Ark which will become the largest timber-framed building in the world.

The full-sized wooden replica of the ship from the biblical story of Noah and the Great Flood is to become the main attraction at a US amusement park set to open in July.

Inside the ark will be several exhibits featuring Noah and his family, along with information to help the public understand the Bible.

The 510-foot-long full-size Ark is designed to be family-oriented, historically authentic, and environmentally friendly

Ken Ham is president and chief executive of Answers in Genesis, the Christian organisation behind the Noah's Ark-themed amusement park in Kentucky.

He said: 'We want to challenge people that Noah wasn't some primitive brute.
