    Excellent museum paying tribute to Johnny Cash. Glad to see plenty of memorabilia. It’s arranged nicely and easy to follow. It has a very nice gift shop.

    We enjoyed this museum very much. It is quite large and is free. Parking is free as well. The farmers market is adjacent as well as a nice park. This is a modern museum with lots of nice displays and videos.

    We did not plan to go there - not in the travel guide - but have been even more positively surprised by the charm and atmosphere of that building, it's history and the small handcraft shops. The place has been an automobile factory im the early 1900s. It is stop no. 1 on the city bus tour. Although there are also those typical gift shops with all Asian manufactured tourist products, you can find some really nice handcrafted and creative works. Would go there again!

    The short film offers an understanding of the family in 1799 and years later. Nice preservation with some items original to the family. Truly enjoyed learning about the family and many stories shared by the docent. Beautiful mature trees. Nice stop for those who enjoy history. Interior photos allowed without flash. Ample parking. Restrooms on site.

    There were so good highlights like the volunteers who sincerely tried to make our visit enjoyable. The negatives were the route we took which couldn’t be helped. It was supposed to be a scenic leaf peeping trip. About 50% of the route was of streets and industrial areas. I went with a group and hadn’t investigated the reviews before we went thinking our leaders would have don’t that. So it was an average experience.
