Set in a 284-acre park at the confluence of the Snake and Columbia Rivers, the Sacajawea Interpretive Center describes the journey of Lewis and Clark through the experiences of Sacagawea, the Shoshone woman who traveled with them. The expedition camped here in 1805. Outside, there's a traditional Wanapum native village; guided tours are available 10am to 4pm weekends.
