The sprawling park includes Gettysburg Battlefield & more historic land, plus a Civil War museum.
"Gettysburg National Park, located in south-central Pennsylvania, is the site of arguably the most consequential battle of the Civil War. After a big success in the Shenandoah Valley, General Lee of the Confederate Army pushed north only to be stopped dead in his tracks at Gettysburg. Today, visitors can almost hear the haunting cries of soldiers fighting on the preserved battlefields. Join an educational tour at this park, or watch a reenactment of the battle. This is a great place to bring the kids, and introduce them to our nation’s past." [Travel+Leisure]
