Not only do our attractions let you see the Ozarks from all possible angles, but also at the same time you can see a live music show, enjoy a meal, or sit in a high-tech IMAX movie theater. Our two largest theme parks will show you a view of the Ozarks' past. These two world-class attractions offer much more than a history lesson. Silver Dollar City has sensational thrill rides, full production shows, fine gift items, and great new water attractions for kids. At the Shepherd of the Hills you can watch the outdoor drama with its pyrotechnical special effects, and modern sound and lighting systems.
Museum rely on the appeal of their bizarre contents and wax movie star figures, to attract visitors.
These places, along with the IMAX Entertainment Complex are real hot spots with the younger generation. You might want to flip to our Kidstuff chapter for other great attractions for kids. You'll find a listing for White Water, Sammy Lane Pirate Cruise, Cool Off Water Chute, and The Tracks in that chapter. Nearby Springfield also has a number of great attractions like Bass Pro Shops, the Discovery Center, and Dickerson Park Zoo. You'll find them listed in the Daytrips chapter.
