BootsnAll.com, a popular website for independent world travelers, has added Branson, Missouri’s own Titanic Museum, to its list of ‘World’s Largest’ things.

Quoting the website:

“This half-scale ship has only been open since 2006, and already more than 1 million guests have walked an elegant replica of the Titanic’s Grand Staircase, and stood on the mighty ship’s bridge. Your visit begins when they hand you the boarding pass of an actual Titanic passenger, and you check out the Memorial Wall to see if they lived or died.”

If you haven’t toured Titanic: The World’s Largest Museum Attraction, then you should fit it into your next Branson visit. This attraction, interesting for all ages, offers several unique activities including opportunities to:

• Walk an elegant replica of the Titanic’s Grand Staircase
• Touch the frozen surface of an ‘iceberg’

• View life onboard, see a First Class Stateroom & Third Class cabin
• Explore world-class gallery rooms with rare historical artifacts
