Located in the Wichita
Mountains Wildlife Refuge, this 66-acre area looks much
like Israel during Biblical times, and is the site of
the nation's longest running Easter passion play, "The
Prince of Peace." Attendance reached an all-time high in
1939 when 225,000 visitors jammed Audience Hill for the
sunrise performance. Other attractions include a
memorial for the victims of the Oklahoma City bombing, a
Veterans Walkway, and the World Chapel, which has become
a popular wedding locale. Donations appreciated.
