Hi everyone welcome to the washington DC

series. Today we're going to talk about

the National Museum of American History.

In this video will tell you what is the

most convenient way to get to the museum

and what are the top attractions inside the

museum as well as tips to make sure that

you get the most of your visit there. The

most convenient way to get around

the central D.C. area is by Metrorail. You

need to take the blue, silver, or orange

line and exit at the Smithsonian station.

Make sure to take the National Mall exit and

then you can just walk to the museum.

If you're in the National Mall area but too far

from the museum to walk, take a DC circulator bus

it's pretty cheap and it saves you from

way too much more walking, and if you

have young kids this is a lifesaver.

Admission is free and the museum is open

from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. daily

except on Christmas day. If you're an

American History and culture buff and

Technology buff from

the 19th and 20th centuries then this

museum is for you.

The National Museum of American History

is collected and preserved more than 3

million artifacts that shows some aspect

of American history such as the original

Star-Spangled Banner, Abraham Lincoln's

Top Hat, Dizzy Gillespe's angled trumpet for you jazz fans

Dorothy ruby slippers from the

movie The Wizard of Oz.

The major theme in this Smithsonian

museum is the exploration of major

themes in American history , people,

culture, and democracy with many displays

it has five major galleries. The Price of

Freedom, American Presidency, the First

Lady's, American Stories and the

Documents Gallery. This museum will take

about two or more hours depending on your

interest and you can combine this with

all the other Smithsonian museums around

in this area or the Capitol Building.
