This was a really cool place. You can see all of Tokyo from here. We were here on a National Holiday, and this place was packed. I would recommend buying your tickets in advance because there was a two plus hour wait if you wanted to go to the upper observation deck. At the base of the tower they have numerous restaurants and a lot of shopping. Also, they had lots of things for kids to do. The lines to get into a restaurant were extremely long. Not worth the wait, so we went to the food court. We still had to wait but not as long, and then we had to wait for a table to come available. I would recommend going at a less busy time and your experience will be a lot better.

This park has an audio tour on the National Park app. It takes about an hour to drive this tour. There were a few people walking the tour, and there were several joggers along the way, too. The Visitor Center is nice, and they have a short video about Vicksburg National Battlefield.

Losts of history here. The park is very, very nice. All the Rangers were friendly and helpful. Easy walking to all the sites. We were here on a Friday morning and it was not crowded. I would give yourself 2-3 hours to tour the grounds.

This place was really cool. A beautiful place to come and relax. I figure it would take about 3 hours to take a relaxing tour here. I was on a time constraint and spent an hour and half here. I saw everything that was open, but wished I had a little more time to enjoy the property and the trails. I went on the Ravine Trail and got ate up by the bugs, so don't for get to bring some bug spray.
