This was my second visit. The first visit was a pleasant surprise, but we could not see everything or experience the whole town in the limited time we had the first visit, so we included a return trip on our most recent road trip. I am not American, nor a history buff but this place is a wonderfully educational immersive experience. The highlight was a morning talk from an Indigenous man who explained the way Native Eastern Woodland societies and Nations operated. It is very foreign to the European society and was very eye-opening. I saw large numbers of families dragging their bored children around. In my mind it is geared more for an adult audience. Wear comfortable shoes because things are very spread out. I was disappointed that we could not get into everything we wanted to see. We could not get into a place to have a meal. Our lunch was 2 cookies we bought at the bakery and snack food we brought ourselves. Bring water and a lunch just in case.
