这次的博物馆之行非常棒,展览信息丰富,趣味十足,让我们了解到JFK的方方面面。从总统妻子的角度来串联整个展览,安排很有新意。博物馆值得一游。

我们上次来波士顿已经是几年之前了,我真的想再看看这个地方。这里越变越好,馆长做了很好的挑选,选择了优秀的注释、食品和有品位的展品以及各种特色。这里真的给予了对肯尼迪生活风格的更广泛理解,是要了解总统及他的家人的必不可少途径。这里很容易能找到免费停车位,景色让人难忘,所以还是要去。这里的交通状况相当繁忙,所以要有耐心,你最终还是会到达的。

展品陈列得非常条理分明;电影很有趣。不过没有多少食物可以选择。位置稍微偏了一点,不过从州际公路的T出口那里可以坐免费的巴士过去,很好找的。

和我的孩子们一起坐了T号红线车去博物馆,藏品的数量和质量都让我们觉得惊喜,有很多信件、剪贴簿、照片等等。纪念品店的东西价格也不会太贵!

海湾上有漂亮的图书馆。开车去那里很容易,有许多停车位。这里安排得好,用视频记录了肯尼迪总统从幼年到竞选总统的历史,然后用展览向你展示了他短暂的总统生涯。要看遍所有东西要花好几个小时。遗憾的是我们只有几个小时来看这里。

I travelled with a close friend who I could only describe as a JFK groupie so when we were in Boston a visit to the JFK library was a must for her and me ...well I tagged along. What a revelation when I found myself engrossed in the story of JFK and his gorgeous wife and absorbing every minute detail of this fabulous display. We were there for 3 hours and would have stayed longer except that is was closing. Don't worry about a guided tour you can easily take yourself around this exhibition and see the many rooms which use a wide variety of multi media displays. If I could say one thing about this establishment is that it needs a better restaurant/ cafeteria. Oh and the views are fabulous.

The first time I visited the Kennedy Museum, I didn't expect much. But it is gorgeous. It sits on a penninsula in Boston Harbor - so beautiful!. Their exhibits change routinely, but they are always engaging. And speakers are often part of the draw. It's a "must see."

First, the location: set at the end of a promontory with a great outlook to Boston harbor, there is plenty of room on the site to set off the dramatic architecture. This location was selected by Mrs Kennedy, after controversy arose over JFK's original plan to build the library in Cambridge. The I.M.Pei structure is dramatic against the simple landscaping (reclaimed from a garbage dump). The museum itself is quite straightforward to go through, not really extensive, but gives an excellent overview of JFK's life and times. If you lived through those times, most interesting, but also for younger audiences it is a great introduction to the man and his family. The Museum and Library is set next to the University of Massachusetts Boston campus and the Edward Kennedy Institute for the US Senate (scheduled to open in March 2015).Easiest to reach by car, but also possible via train (T - Red Line to JFK/UMass station), then number 8 or 16 bus.

Lovely location on Boston Harbor, however, be warned you need to take Red Line or drive to JFK Museum & Library. It is located next to U. Mass. Boston. If you bring kids, suggest you do a little research beforehand on the 1960's & the Kennedy family.

One of the best attractions is the site that Jackie Kennedy chose for the JFK Library; at the end of a promontory surrounded by staggering views of Boston, and the ocean that JFK loved. The architecture is dramatic; but the objects on display are sparse and unexceptional. Parking is ample; bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the surroundings.

We missed getting here on our last trip and my wife really wanted to see it. Well this time we made it. It does not disappoint. It was easy to get to we used a train and bus to get there. Being an Aussie you hear and read about a lot of American history and this museum bought it all to life and more. You can see why the American people loved this man and his family. Very affordable to get in and easy to get around. Just do it.

I came here as part of a class and really enjoyed it. There is plenty of parking, so don't worry about that. There is a video at the start and then you walk around a variety of areas with posters, videos, pictures, etc. If you love JFK (as most do) come by on a rainy afternoon instead of sitting home.

The history nerd in me had a great time. Loved every moment. From the election to his death it was simply amazing. Lots of good history on the Kennedy Family that I was not aware of, as well as personal letters and artifacts of the First Lady and President. A must do for any History Nerd!

So many artifacts, even a coconut he wrote on when he was in service. Jackie Os wedding gown, the snack bar has great Clam Chowder. Midst gorgeous American Flag hanging in the atrium...Check it out
