Ripley's Believe It or Not!
Ripley's Believe It or Not! is an interactive museum full of kitschy oddities on display, from shrunken human heads to rare animal skeletons. It's one of the most unique family-friendly indoor activities in DFW! We’ve driven by so many times and had so much fun visiting each attraction, and exploring all that Ripley’s has to offer! Each exhibit is unique and extensive, we seriously could spend all day here there is so much to see!
It's open every day from 10am to 8pm you can find them at 601 E Palace Pkwy in Grand Prairie just 15 minutes from Downtown!
LOUIS TUSSAUD’S WAXWORKS
Explore the massive wax museum with over 200 lifelike wax figures from musicians, historic figures, Marvel characters, and more! There are tons of photo ops and multiple exhibits with all different themes including the Land of Oz and Hogwarts!
Plus within the wax exhibit, they also have a museum of fear that genuinely had us spooked (and a claustrophobic room that we couldn’t even do, definitely enter at your own risk!)
