It's not surprising that Branson is known as the "Entertainment Capital of the World," with tons of exciting attractions ranging from live shows and amusement parks to many thrilling water activities. Branson, located in the Ozark Mountains, provides visitors and locals alike with easy access to all the city offers.

Table Rock Lake

With over 50,000 acres of crystal clear water and 800 miles of shoreline, Table Rock State Park is a panoramic escape for anyone looking to get away from the daily grind. There are miles of trails in the park and campsites with water and electricity. Outdoor recreation and wildlife abound in this lush expanse of land.

As one of Branson's top attractions, Table Rock Lake is a great place to enjoy the outdoors. The lake is the ideal getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life, with many activities such as camping, boating, fishing, wildlife watching, hiking, and biking.

Branson Landing

Branson Landing, located next to a 1.5-mile stretch of Lake Taneycomo's lakeside, is a well-known urban entertainment center with a must-see water feature. Along with different shops and restaurants, this famous shopping mall features the spectacular Fountain Show. This includes 100-foot fountain geysers and fire columns that dance to the rhythm of lights and music.

Branson Landing is a fantastic place to visit after a thrilling ride on the Branson Mountain Coaster. Stroll along the Fountain promenade after shopping, dining, or attending events.

Silver Dollar City

Silver Dollar City is well-known as one of the most popular Branson attractions. This isn't your average amusement park set in the 1880s. Despite its 1960 opening, the 61-acre park transports you to a bygone era of clockwork, steam trains, cogwheels, vintage cabins, blacksmiths, and pointy roofs.

Silver Dollar City's fun doesn't stop with its Victorian and steampunk themes. Enjoy various activities, including intense family entertainment and 13 acres of water fun! Add the thrills and spills of old-fashioned crafting demonstrations, musicals, and campgrounds. Who wouldn't want to miss out on a trip to the park?

 Titanic Museum

Former TV producer John Joslyn's Titanic obsession has led to the establishment of two Titanic Museums, one of which is located in Branson. The Titanic Museum, which houses over 400 artifacts from the world-famous sunken ship, transports you to 1912 as you tour the iconic grand staircase, dining hall, cabins, parlors, and bridge of the luxurious ocean liner.

You'll receive a boarding ticket with the name of an actual Titanic passenger as you step into the replica of the Titanic that rips the ocean. You'll see interactive displays and exhibits of the ship's artifacts as you walk around the museum. As you go through the tour, you will discover the fate of the passenger's name in the list of those who survived and died.

Promised Land Zoo

Promised Land Zoo is Branson's only zoo, occupying 75 acres of natural Ozarks terrain. Inside the zoo, you will see many animal species from all over the world, including endangered species, to aid in their conservation. Animal encounters are available at zoo attractions such as Parakeet Paradise, Drive-Thru Zoo, Foot Safari, and Animal Adventure Building.

This zoo lets you get close to animals that you don't get to see every day. At Promised Land Zoo, you can feed some friendly animals, pet a kangaroo, see baby monkeys and giraffes, and touch a tortoise, among other things.

Talking Rocks Cavern

The Talking Rocks Cavern, formerly known as Fairy Cave, will enchant you with its mineral deposits, stunning rock formations, and wild inhabitants. The fantastic stalactites and stalagmites that adorn the caves will also excite you. Don't miss out on a one-hour tour that will take you 150 steps deep into the earth.

Outside the cave, Talking Rocks Cavern offers unique activities such as gem mining, hiking, sightseeing, and attractions such as a maze and a mini-golf course.

Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery

Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery, located just below Table Rock Dam, is home to hundreds of thousands of pounds of trout. Each year, the Missouri Department of Conservation Shepherd of the Hills hatchery produces around 350,000 to 400,000 pounds of rainbow and brown trout, transferred to Lake Taneycomo. A conservation center, lovely hiking trails, and a picnic area surround the artificial lake, free to explore.
