After graduating from the University of Southern Mississippi, Daniella began to hone her writing skills through various internships. In the years since, she’s had the privilege of having her articles appear in several publications, such as the Mississippi-based Parents & Kids Magazine. She’s also had the honor of interviewing actress Sela Ward for The Mississippi Arts and Entertainment Experience.
If ever there were a place worthy of being called a “little slice of Heaven,” it’s Arkansas’ Holy Land! The 50-acre site is filled with life-size biblical scenes, giving visitors the opportunity to step back in time and experience the people of the Bible first-hand.
Thanks to the Holy Land in Eureka Springs, you can experience the ancient Middle East right here in Arkansas!
During the 2.5-hour tour, you’ll be transported by bus to each exhibit, stopping along the way to meet biblical characters and explore significant sites from the Bible.
Some points of interest on the tour include a visit to one of the world’s only full-scale replicas of Moses' Tabernacle and the upper room, where the Last Supper took place.
During certain times of the year, tours are offered in conjunction with The Great Passion Play. A must-see, the play is "America's #1 attended outdoor drama."
So, what do you think? Are you ready to venture to the Holy Land? For more information on the Holy Land Tour as well as the play, call (479) 253-8559. You can also visit the Great Passion Play website or Facebook page.
