We bought tickets that included the cyclorama, movie, museum, and bus tour of the Battlefield. Taking the tour really brought the battle alive. After the tour, we drove the car to spend more time at some of the stops. There are lots of memorials to the different divisions of both Union and Federal troops. Gary wanted to climb to the top of Big Round Top so we did. Hard to imaging the rebels running up the hill trying to attack the Union army, especially when you consider it was in July and very hot. We did not visit any of the other museums in the area.
