National Museum of the Pacific War

"Very unexpected. Very good. They have really spent time and energy to make this an excellent exhibit. Well worth an afternoon of your time if you're in the area."

"Great museum. I would suggest leaving your entire day open when visiting this museum. Lots of wonderful history, many interactive exhibits, and lots of reading too. If you love history, especially WWII, this is a true gem. Children will enjoy many of the exhibits but will honestly probably become restless before you finish your tour."

"Emotional - great clear information. Sets the scene historically from 1800s and takes you through Nimitz and WW2 in an understandable way. We spent about hour and a half and would happily have stayed longer if we'd had time. Paid entry so check current prices. You walk through information boards, can push buttons for extra information and words from those involved, lots of exhibits of vehicles, uniforms and so on, including a submarine. Great restroom facilities, directions are marked if you need to rest or visit restroom during the tour. Fascinating and distressing... as is war."

"Super heavy energy in this place. Not bad, just heavy. Military and senior discounts help the expensive ticket prices. The museum is dedicated to those who did what they had to do to stay alive and more so for those who paid the ultimate sacrifice on both sides of the belligerent parties. If you're sensitive, this place will drain you. Just know before you go. Great place to visit when your tired of the normal wine and dine the Fburg has to offer. I don't normally cry. The energy here is sad and oppressive. Unfortunately, it's a story that must be told.. Plotted. Scouts Out."

"If you are given the chance to go here, take it. This museum is incredible. I left with such a humble heart. The whole experience was very moving and at times surreal. The amount of artifacts they have and the knowledge that was shared was beyond anything I ever expected. We were in here for hours and could have easily spent the day here reading all the stories. It is an inside and outside museum with many things to see. Take it all in."
