Plan an entire day to really take in all the Pacific War museum has to offer. And check their calendar for re-enactment weekends. Don't forget to check out the town of Fredericksburg also.

This museum in Fredericksburg is huge - it will easily take you an entire day to see all of the exhibits . Among the collection: a Japanese mini submarine used during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

This place is absolutely huge, make sure you have at least 4 hours to spend cuz you'll need it, or if you can, take two days. So much to see and so much to read!

Deven Nongbri

Give yourself 3-4 hours for this museum - so much to cover with some real one-of-a-kind artifacts . Both kids, 11 and 14, loved it.

Austin American-Statesman

Built in Adm. Chester Nimitz ' hometown, this history-rich museum takes hours to go through. The new George H.W. Bush Gallery opened on Dec. 8, 2009, and includes 33,000 feet of exhibition on its own.

Kathryn Anderson

Excellent museum . An almost overwhelming amount of information. The combat zone was my favorite part.

Don't rush into the museum . Spend some time in the courtyard and surrounding plaza . Lots of great commemorations and history to be seen here as well .
