Great for All Ages, don't miss it
Second trip to see this great place. Brought someone new with me this time and they were thoroughly impressed with all the displays and interactive exhibits. It is a great museum and park that needs to be marketed more. It takes a good 3 hours just to hit and see everything and with that time you may miss something. We also went thru the Drive thru Christmas lights, and it was very nice and colorful, everyone needs to be able to see the light display, don't miss it if you get a chance and is very good price wise. This is for any age, but small children will love it for their hands on exhibits. A lot of walking but it is worth every step.

Discovery Park is a Winner!
We visited Discovery Park of America in Union City, TN yesterday (6/28/20) with my 5 year old granddaughter. I highly recommend this attraction especially when we all have concerns about visiting venues such as these during this crazy time. In terms of cleanliness, I would rate this park a 10. (They are currently closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for deep cleaning.) The 100,000 square foot museum has something for everyone - classic car collection, aquarium, fossil and space exhibits, all of which are excellently presented. There is a separate admission to experience an earthquake simulation which occurred in the nearby New Madrid fault area in 1811. The tower experience is also an extra fee. In addition to the museum, there is a 50 acre heritage park with primitive outbuildings, many of which were moved to this park to depict rural life in the 1800s. This was one of my favorite parts of the park.
