A giant museum!
The museum was awesome. It was very gigantic so having a two days to see all the exhibits is highly recommended because it was indeed gigantic. We enjoyed seeing the animals, dinosaurs, and even the history of Buffalo Bill was very curious. We do recommend going because adults only pay and children i believe younger than twelve years old doesn't pay.

World Class -- Plan to Stay Several Days
BBCW is a nationally-recognized museum (exchanges things with the Smithsonian) and is actually 5 musuems: Buffalo Bill Wild West Show, Natural History, Plains Indian, Firearms, and Whitney Gallery of Western Art. If you read the informational cards scattered around the exhibits, you could spend several days here. I would recommend that--too much of any museum at once burns out the brain. There are a number of other things to see and do in Cody; try half a day at the museum and the rest of the day elsewhere.
