Site of the John F. Kennedy Assassination - A Tour to Dealey Plaza Dallas
If there ever were a site with any historical significance in the History of the United States, it would be the Dealey Plaza in Dallas. The site of the historical assassination of John F Kennedy, former president and one of the greatest leaders the country has ever seen, the plaza has changed very little over the years and still manages to retain the aura of the assassination period.

A popular part of the Dealey Plaza is the grassy knoll, a sloping grassy hill which was west and north to President Kennedy during his assassination. This hill has been subject to several controversial theories around Kennedy's assassination, though one has been successfully verified.
One can research the life and death of John F Kennedy in the reading room, open only by appointment from 12 PM to 5 PM on weekdays. One can also indulge in a guided cellphone tour around the Plaza campus.
Both the sixth and seventh floors attempt to exhibit the life, times and death of the famous president through photographs, readings, eyewitness accounts and educational programming.
The plaza also holds a number of programs on a regular basis for its visitors ranging from museum tours to photograph exhibits to interaction with notable personalities and eye-witnesses to the life and death of John F Kennedy.
The museum has played host to over 6 million visitors since it opened in 1989.
