The Drug Enforcement Administration Museum and Visitors Center is a museum owned by the Drug Enforcement Administration and located in Arlington County, Virginia.[1] Its first exhibit, featuring exhibits of cannabis, coca, and poppy, opened in 1999.[2][3]
The museum has appeared on a list of ten best sites published in USA Today.[4] Fodor's calls its exhibits "hard hitting";[5] Lonely Planet's guide to Washington D.C. sarcastically recommended the museum, "If...you think all drug users and pushers should go to jail for a very long time and drugs and terrorism go hand in hand--or if you just have a thing for heavy-handed propaganda".[6]
