Ground Zero 911 memorial and museum

The memorial is located on the grounds of the World Trade Centre and honours the 2,983 people that were killed in the attacks. The memorial consists of two reflecting pools set in the footprint of the twin towers. The first glimpse is just breath taking. The water in the pools is for the symbol of life and it runs continually and you can't see where the water falls to which represents infinity of life continuing. The names of every victim are cut out of the surround walls.

The guided tours are the best way to get around as you get to hear about their first-hand accounts of that day.

There are many touching testimonies provided by families of the victims from September 11th and you can discover first-hand accounts from survivors. This trip will stay with me forever, the emotion in one room is intense. Then the realisation of the fact that this is real sets in!

When I visited New York, Ground Zero was top of my list to visit and pay my respects, and I’m so glad I did. I would highly recommend this to my clients, it's very moving and emotional.

It seems strange to rate the outcome of such a horrific incident as excellent but in honour and memory of all the victims it truly is an excellent experience.
