我们在酒店退房之后去了这里。大概离我们的酒店只要40分钟。我们全家（2个大人，2个小孩，1个九岁的孩子）很喜欢这个博物馆，他们喜欢看关于飞机的介绍，特别是看看独一无二的二战飞机。我们都喜欢Enterprise, 航空飞船。非常宽敞的博物馆，能看见各种各样的飞行器被放在一起，真棒！

史密森尼国立航空航天博物馆有超过160架飞机和成百上千的飞机部件，绝对是华盛顿地区不可不看的地方。多亏了超大的飞机棚，这儿跟其他史密森尼博物馆比起来没有那么挤，即便是参观人数众多的时候（我问了博物馆的门卫当天有多少人参观博物馆，他说下午三点左右就有6600人次了）。孩子们很喜欢宇宙飞船、火箭和协和式飞机。我们很想看看一些飞机的内部构造（至少看一架）。果然不虚此行，15美元的停车费也值了。如果你不喜欢吃麦当劳，那可就麻烦了。目前只有麦当劳这一家餐厅。

我对史密森尼国立航空航天博物馆有什么评价呢？对航天爱好者来说，这儿就好比卢浮宫。当你一进入博物馆（不收门票，停车费是12美元），就会被壮观的气场给震住。历史上著名的飞机像塑料模型一样挂在天花板上，就像小时候家里挂的一样。我实在是太兴奋了，拍出来的照片一般都是模糊的。博物馆很大，为人们参观航空部件提供了更为放松、开放的环境。我们看到了第一次世界大战时期的飞机，更别提各种各样的试验航空器、飞行员制服、奖章等等，真是几天都看不过来。优点：没有蜂拥的游客，飞机和飞行器的种类非常多，瞭望塔的视野很开阔缺点：停车费要12美元（但是也还算值）

我们最近去这家博物馆参观了，非常喜欢。一定要参加有导游讲解的观光团，因为导游真是无所不知。参观应该是要1个半小时，但是我们的导游（一位退休的商务航空公司飞行员）特别棒，鼓励大家踊跃提问，所以整个参观过程持续了3个小时，所以提前计划好行程。导游的解说是我们整个博物馆之行的亮点。博物馆非常大，有数不清的飞机。每架飞机的介绍都只是简单的几句，如果你想了解每架飞机背后的历史，那么最好参加带导游的观光团。博物馆旁边只有一家餐厅——卖得很贵的麦当劳。我们两个人吃了15美元。博物馆不允许携带食物入内，但是瓶装水是允许的。停车费高得离谱，要15美元。我们住在附近的一家酒店，他们提供往返于酒店和博物馆的免费班车，是免费的，去看看吧。我们在博物馆待了大约五个小时，本来还想再看一会儿，但是实在是力不从心。我们没有看IMAX电影，票价太贵了，每个人8.5美元。博物馆人不多，我们是工作日去的，但是因为每个展区的空间都很大，所以我觉得博物馆能够容纳大批游客，不像其他博物馆人多就感觉摩肩接踵。总的来说，我们玩得很开心，如果你对飞机和历史感兴趣，那么你会喜欢上这儿的。

这个地方对于那些热衷于飞机和航天的人来说真是太有吸引力了，即便是那些对博物馆内的陈设和专业的环境不感兴趣的人来说也值得参观。我是冲着“企业号”航天飞机来的，果然没有让我失望。机身太漂亮了，放在展台上别有气势。这儿还有在日本投放第一颗原子弹的艾诺拉•盖号飞机，此外还有其他性能卓越的飞机，包括协和式。博物馆还有飞行模拟装置，我和女儿体验了很久，玩得不亦乐乎。这儿有一家麦当劳和一个礼品店。瞭望塔一定不可错过，IMAX电影也要看看，超炫。这儿不是华盛顿市中心商场里面的航空航天博物馆，规模要大好多。如果你期待这儿的展览品跟市中心博物馆里的一样，那么你会失望的。如果你知道这儿的特色，那么你会很喜欢的。好好参观一番需要好几个小时。一架架飞机让人目不暇接，其中包括协和式飞机和宇宙飞船。博物馆的布局非常好。里面的走道能让你拥有很好的视角，能够全方位地见识到那些光荣退休的飞机。协和式、艾诺拉•盖号、宇宙飞船……，让人眼花缭乱。麦当劳生意很好，但是你也能吃上。我建议去瞭望塔看看，在那儿你能够看到杜勒斯机场的宏伟景观。如果你有小孩，一定要带他来看看！

OK, the bad stuff first. The only 'food' available is McDonalds. The museum is free, but parking is $15.Once you get in, the place is incredible. First, we went to the observation tower. It's a great view of Dulles airport from between the end of two parallel runways. Live air traffic control audio is constantly on the PA system. One floor down is a sample air traffic terminal. Don't waste your time there. The highlight are the two hangers full of amazing air and space craft. There are three levels of walkways. Check with the information desk for a map and suggestions for your walking route. You'll get up close and personal with the Discovery space shuttle, the Enola Gay, the first Boeing 707,the Concord and dozens of new and old aircraft. You can also observe the restoration shop. If you're into this stuff, it'll be hard to wipe the smile off your face. The other downside is that there's few opportunities to go into the craft. Would I go again? Yes.

We had a friend visit from Vietnam and I told her about the museum at the airport. We first visited the Smithsonian museum at the national mall in Washington DC. The next day I drove her out to this museum. She loved it. She thought the space shuttle and the SR 71 were absolutely fabulous. We spent three hours in the museum and watch a movie. She never got bored. I had been here twice before and I enjoyed this visit is much as the last two.

What a great museum this was even for toddlers. There is ample space to roam around and it never felt crowded even though we were there on a Saturday over Christmas break. Get there early to truly beat the mad rush of crowds. The museum is free but parking was about $15. It was amazing to see some of the worlds finest airplanes in this hangar and mind blowing to see part of a space shuttle. It was a great time for the whole family. I wish we had more time when we went and it's one of those museums that will never get old. In addition to the planes on the museum floor there are planes in the restoration part of the facility that you can see being put back together. Truly a one of a kind experience.

Just to clarify: This is NOT to be confused with the Air and Space Museum in Downtown Washington, D.C. The Udvar-Hazy Center is located near Dulles Airport. Even those who are less than interested in air travel will find the wide-ranging assemblage of aircraft here downright splendid. Additionally, visitors can watch vintage planes being restored, can watch planes landing on the main runways at Dulles Airport, can watch IMAX movies and the list goes on.

Dislike, the $15 admission to park a car, yes you get to go to the museum, but would rather go with several people than myself or with one child. Like, the last Space Shuttle to fly in space. We were able to see it fly over Dulles Airport on its final voyage, which was awesome. Also like the Concorde. Would be cool to be able to see inside some of the larger planes, but it's very interesting to see all of the different planes they have in there, and the space wing is really cool. Both of my kids enjoy going there. The highlight, is going up in the tower and being able to watch the planes take off and land from Dulles.

Even with the parking fee, it was a great experience. Kids had a blast - especially the kid who had just learned about WWII. The Enola Gay was neat, plus the HUGE space shuttle. We only had a couple of hours, so we were in a rush, but next time (and there will be a next time) we'll stay longer!

This is a great family destination. We saw relics from WWI, WWII, Space Shuttles, all sorts of memorabilia and more. We also saw a great aviation movie at the IMAX theatre (extra fee) and visited the 360 degree observation tower of Dulles Airport. My husband and I loved it (40s) for its history and relevance, kids (girls, ages 12 and 15) liked it.

Amazing exhibits - lifesize and real aircraft, etc.. So special to see the actual planes, space travel, helicopters, etc.. Keeps everyone interested at any age. Large enough that crowds can visit without a problem.

This immense space has the largest number of aircraft anywhere including space vehicles. Be sure to go when they have the plane pulling contests.

This is the best air and space museum that I have been to. It has more aircraft, more displays, amazing docents to provide tours and plenty of interesting things for kids of all ages. It out does the original Smithsonian with 4 times the floor space. It's more impressive than both the Seattle Air Museum or the Evergreen Museum in McMinnville, OR. Not that they aren't worth visiting but this place is spectacular. I especially liked the restoration area where one could see from the 2nd floor wall of glass down into the area where they were restoring at least four different aircraft. Plan at least 4-5 hours here to capture all there is. The only disappointing part of the entire visit was that the only eatery was McDonalds!!!
