Went to see this in July 2014 - I thoroughly enjoyed the tour as there are lots of interesting facts and artworks inside, but the majority is corridors. By all means go see it but if you don't like walking through corridors a lot then don't!

This is a 50 minute tour of very long corridors, lined with potentially interesting exhibits, photographs and information that you are given no time to stop at. Some of the narrative from the young serviceman was interesting - the Pentagon has its own air supply and food stocks to keep employees fed for 6 months on lockdown - though the...
