I strongly suggest a visit if you have time in the area. Easy on and off the freeway. |
I echo that sentiment. The museum is very well done, and almost puts you there that day. I've also visited the Arizona which is also moving.
In addition to OKC, for me there are 3 places that stick out as leaving the biggest impression: The Holocaust Museum in DC, the Vietnam Memorial, and NY's Ground Zero (we went a couple years after, and the remnants of personal memorials were chilling and rather moving).
Definitely stop by the Oklahoma City Memorial if you have a chance...
