One of the most visited presidential libraries in the nation, this museum is supplied with information regarding one of the most controversial times in United States history. Peeking inside the life of the 36th President, the LBJ tapes provide listeners the opportunity to learn about the JFK asasination and the Vietnam War. Along with the famous tapes, visitors can see a to-scale replica of the Oval Office, political memorabilia and more than 39 million pages of historical notes. Plan on a full day at this fantastic museum, but if you are a real history buff, you will barely scratch the surface of what this fantastic archive has to offer. Admission is free.
