As an American it seems like a duty to visit when in OKC. It was an incredibly moving experience. The good people of OKC and OK live with, and feel, this tragedy everyday. You can't help but hurt for your fellow Americans...the past and the survivors.

A MUST SEE IN OKLAHOMA CITY

I decided to see the memorial when I finished with business I had out there and I'm so glad I did. Once you have visited this memorial, you will remember it for the rest of your life. It's so beautifully done and I think the most touching area was the 7 rows of chairs, each row representing what floor that person was on. Having their ...
Nothing can really be said about that day that hasn't already been said I suppose. I live 10 streets north in the same block of the explosion. My husband and I were home and our house shook. All the upstairs windows on the south side of the house cracked. This is an Historic neighborhood and the house are 80 years old and older and the glass ...

The memorial and museum was a wonderful tribute to those who died, were injured and helped with the rescue efforts. I hadn't ever seen anything like this and even thou I cried thru the memorial and museum when I went thru during the day, I had to go back at night to see the seats lit. Every exibit had a reason and a meaning. I felt that I ...
This was one of the best planned memorials I've been to. We moved from Montana and lived in Moore,Ok. for 4 years. Our first visit brought reality to this tradgedy. Everything was so well planned and thought out. I left with so many feelings- anger, frustration, hurt devestation, broken hearted, and terrific feeling of loss for each family and ...
From the moment I walked in I felt this calm about me it's was beautiful I am so thrilled at what a wonderful place the memorial has turned out to be and how people treat it with so much respect. I went 3 days ago and still am thinking about it I hope it affects all like me. Visit both day and night it is am extremly different both times.

This was the most meaningful stop on our trip. It was absolutely breathtaking. I could feel the serenity and peace within. Everyone needs to see and feel this. God bless everyone of them.
This was, by far, the best part of our trip to OK City. The memorial is touching, peaceful, and the people are great.
You really must stop by if your in the area.

Don't Miss This

After 9/11 and the passage of time it is easy to forget about the OKC bombing, but this memorial brings back a flood of emotions. I suggest visiting on an early weekday morning, as I did. It was an intensely moving experience. The memorial itself is a wonderful, beautiful tribute to those who died, as well a reminder of the death of innocence, that the rest of us feel to this day.
