A glorious museum to spend the day. - Wow, what a special place! The Bible museum has six floors of exhibits, theater shows, and an observation deck. Each section of the museum has a special focus on parts of the Bible and many quiet places to sit and soak it all in. There’s a section specifically for children to immerse themselves in the world of the Bible. The entrance of the museum begins with sculptures representing the Stations of the Cross and if you look up onto the ceiling, there’s a beautiful video screen that changes every couple of minutes. The gift shop is excellent and offers some unique items to purchase. The prices are very reasonable! There’s also a restroom on every floor, and that’s very convenient if you need to take a restroom break and then continue with the tour of the museum. I spent three hours there and honestly could have stayed much longer if I’d had the time available.

I spent 5 hours perusing the museum and still did not get to all floors. So much information.6788 - The museum was amazing. I learned a lot about Bible that I didn’t know. I glad I have a little bit more than a layman’s knowledge but still , there’s so much to see and learn. I especially liked the interactive parts such as the Passover meals in different cultures.

They present the evidence - you decide! - Love the fact that they don't preach & tell you what to think... They present the evidence (and plenty of it) - then let YOU decide whether the Bible is true or not. Excellent!!

Excellent experience and worth the time and money - This museum was a pleasant surprise. I went there because I was in DC and someone at the hotel I was staying at, recommended. So, what a surprise! I went twice and spent 5 hours each time. It is not a religious event and very educational! I recommend doing the immersion experiences they offer and they have a nice gift shop. The only thing that I would change is better eating options, The cafe was basic. So eat breakfast or lunch before you do and give yourself plenty of time to enjoy

Awesomely enriching!!! - Material was awesomely displayed. Loved listening to torah scribe as he wrote names in Hebrew and told their meanings. Enjoyed learning about the history of the Bible and why we should be so thankful for all interpreters and writers before present day. Christmas music sung on the first floor by worship vocalist was "over the top!" Thank you so much for brightening our day at Christmas and helping us to rejoice!

Awesome Experience ! - The best experience of the Bible Museum was the 3rd floor exhibits (Stories of the Bible). The recreation of a biblical village was very inspiring. It places you in a time of simplistic and manual living. The animated stories of the Bible exhibit, were very creative and interactive. I think it was the most exciting event there. I wholly recommend this location when visiting Washington DC. It's truly a unique experience!
