The building's soaring design evokes an image of the flag-raisers of Iwo Jima and beckons visitors to this 120,000-square-foot structure. World-class interactive exhibits, using the most innovation technology, surround visitors with irreplaceable artifacts and immerse them in the sights and sounds of Marines in action. Enjoy a guided tour, lunch is on your own at the mess hall cafeteria. There may be a lot of walking.  Meet at Normandy Shopping Center.
