Great museum and visitors centre. Lots of information on the area, Henry Parkes, Elvis, a motor museum etc. Would recommend for anyone driving through.

Stopped for a bit of lunch. Found the Henry Parkes historical house recreation and audio visual display very interesting. Well worth the stop.

A very good collection of souvenirs and books to choose from if you wish. The young lady working was delightful and knowledgeable. The Elvis museum was a surprise and the automobile display was awesome. The museum out the back was full of treasures. This is a great place to visit, you get more than you bargained for.

Really liked it here. First the ladies were very helpful. Plenty of things to see here, first the Elvis Presley displays, the car museum, Henry Parkes museum and the Hisorical museum all side by side. Worth checking it out.

Great greetings by the ladies at reception. They gave a good account of things to explore in Parkes area, waited for us before closing and also offered us some cookies. Thanks for all your courtesies.

the staff were very friendly and helpful, the exhibits in the museums were amazing, a must see if you come to Parkes, it was a beautiful trip down memory lane, and an education for the young ones.

In the visitors center you can see part of the equipment used in the radio telescope, like the first multibeam receiver or some of the electronics. There's also engaging material for kids and a beautiful exposition of astrophotography. In the store you can find interesting things and your purchase supports science!

People extremely helpful with local information. Don't forget the Parkes Museum and Sir Henry's English house replica, also farm machinery exhibit. Having had to wait in Parkes while flooding subsided I found it interesting and helpful, plus some great local Almond Honey.
