Now that you have decided to stay in a Grand Prairie hotel, click here, and you have seen some of the interesting sights around town, you may want to take a bit of a drive. Not far along the Interstate 30 , to the west lies the big city of Dallas. There are a number of things to do in Dallas and if you are interested in politics and fame than you may want to visit the sixth floor of the Dealey Plaza Book Depository Building. This is where they have a museum that remembers the life and untimely death of President John F Kennedy. This is, of course, the building where Lee Harvey Oswald took the life of the well love President as he drove by, with is his wife Jacqueline in a motorcade.

Lee Harvey Oswald was quickly caught and accused but as they were hauling him off to jail, he was shot and killed by someone in the crowd. The assassination has had years of questioning that came with many conspiracy theories and alternate stories. There are still many people today who think that Mr. Oswald may have had a partner or two. Or that he was just the pawn and someone else actually killed President Kennedy. No one really knows if the facts given are the truth or if there is another story. If there is anther story will it ever be told to the public. The National Academy of Sciences has conducted some research on the matter and they do question the accuracy of the evidence as it relates to their finding four shots fired.

More than six million people have visited the museum since it opened on Presidents Day 1989. Visitors can stand were Oswald stood. They can walk the street with a listening guide to hear all the about the facts collected and from the outside park. There is a shop with books and souvenirs. It all is a bit eerie, sad and a must see.
