Ripley's Believe it or Not!

Location: 234 W 42nd St, New York, NY 10036

Ripley’s Believe It or Not! is adjacent to Madame Tussauds on 42nd Street right in the heart of Times Square. Ripley’s Believe It or Not! will awe you with amazing displays of eccentric art, meticulously detailed sculptures constructed from used car parts as well as many extraordinary animals that greet you as you walk through the Ripley’s courtyard.

Here is just a small sample of some of the wonders you will see: The Mexican Vampire Woman and an albino giraffe. After observing these “pranks of nature” you’ll travel through Robert Ripley’s past; the strange people he met will smile at you, the artifacts he collected will glimmer in your eye. But artifacts are only one part of the story that Robert Ripley sought to create.

While immersing yourself in Ripley’s past you’ll also be engaged (even if you don’t realize it) in amazing interactive exhibits that inexorably draw you in. At Ripley’s Times Square, you’ll be privy to the most uncommon and unique personalities of our world. If you have enough willpower to escape the mesmerizing interactive exhibits, you’ll find yourself treading through a trove of artifacts. Prepare to be amazed!
