Their advertisement in the Passport may need to be more specific as to what you should expect. It is not an information center as you experience otherwise along Route 66. While the building is interesting, this is more of a destination versus an information or visitor center. It is not a stopover along the route. Perhaps if we had paid the admission fees and stayed a few hours to go thru the full experience it would have been worthwhile. But if you are on the full Route 66 journey, this is one you should probably pass on by for the sake of time.

Located in the center of OKC's Myriad Botanical Gardens downtown, it is a very nice break from the…read morecity. It's not a very large conservatory and can easily walk it within an hour. But it's unique architecture makes it stand our with the suspended bridges. There are an assortment of unique plants including a whole section for various cacti. It's just plants, no animals. There a few information cards and scent samples for learning purposes. There is also a kids learning classroom inside. The only downside was some of the smelling info station were out and some info cards were a little vague or wasn't clear enough to pinpoint it to the plant it was talking about so it could be a little better maintained. Also there are technically two entrances but they only allow access from one from the outside which was a little annoying to have to walk another 5 mins to the other side. Tickets were around $10 when I went, which is alright. This is a tropical conservatory so be prepared to sweat.

What a beautiful visit my daughter and I had today…read more I remember the first trip to the bridge way back in the 90s with my bride. It was beautiful then and now after the renovation it looks amazing. While not the bridge the surrounding gardens and koi, ducks, etc are beautiful. We loved every minute and we only left due to the heat. Thanks for a super special time.

The scavenger hunt motivated us to look even more closely to the details of all the exhibits, which I am glad for. I travel the world and go to the Natural History Museums in every country.

Our favorite is the dinosaur displays. There is even a lady that will give you interesting facts. For second level, you can ride elevator and see them from up high. Or kids may love to walk the long stairs up. Currently they have a traveling bug section but it's really a small play area. They do have a worker there to keep control of the area. It's not too big, so just a couple hours. It's super clean, quiet during week. They do have a gift shop also. Cost is 10 and seniors 8. A great place to visit once a year.

Play with the light…read more Solid Light by Anthony McCall was such a fun experience. In a collaboration with the Tate Museum, the Oklahoma Contemporary Art Center has a very unique display. McCall's immersive light sculptures invite you to interact with but not touch the light. So much fun to walk through sculptural beams made of mist and projected light. This sensory experience was truly amazing. It was also a fun challenge to try to capture the images. The 2-D images on film barely scratch the surface of what you will enjoy in the Contemporary Arts Center. Ask questions to learn more. It was so interesting to hear about the installation. The center is just two floors of art. The exhibits change regularly. Parking and entry to the museum are both free. Enjoy the Solid Light.

I don't have enough adjectives for it! Lots of interactive pieces. The first floor was full of student art (from the adjacent studio I believe) and the third floor held a evocative exhibit, Jakian Parks: The Black Land. I wish I had had enough time to explore the grounds and the outside art. The best thing about OCAC is that it is free. (Please feel free to support this place and a $5 donation is encouraged.) I'm anxious to see what exhibits are on view the next time I'm in OKC.

Especially in terms of classical beauty and architecture. It looks old and yet new. It's different... but the same. Oh wait I was channeling Bill & Ted. It looks so quaint it could be in Disneyland - but it's absolutely real and not fake at all. Unlike my girl. I don't get tired of driving around the back streets of this neighbourhood and seeing this gorgeous building. And there's computers... and SAN DIMAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RULES!

The history is amazing & was so fun to learn about. The volunteers were wonderful & knew a LOT of great facts. We LOVED our time & are hoping to return around Christmas.
