Description:

Where the twin towers fell during the devastating events of 9/11, a moving memorial and powerful museum now stand in tribute to the victims, survivors, and heroes of the 2001 attacks. Explore them both with an expert guide to gain insight into a national tragedy whose impact is still felt today.

Meet your guide at St. Paul's Chapel. The oldest surviving church in Manhattan, St. Paul's sits just opposite the World Trade Center site, and served as a place of refuge for volunteer workers in the days and months after 9/11. Walk through the Winter Garden at nearby Brookfield Place to learn about the economic impact of the attacks, and then make your way to the memorial itself.

Stand before the stirring monument, where water cascades peacefully down into deep reflecting pools set in the footprints of the 2 towers of the World Trade Center. Read the names of all 2,977 victims who perished during the tragic attacks of September 11, 2001, and pay your somber respects to their memory in this serenely charming, somber setting. You guide shares stories about the courageous heroes who brought light to the city in some of its darkest days as you visit the Fireman's Memorial and the Survivor Tree.

Finally, skip the line at the Memorial Museum. Walk through the exhibits at your own pace, taking as much time as you'd like to see the artifacts and remnants on display. Learn about the victims individually, looking at photographs and listening to personal stories shared by friends and family. Before you leave, gaze up at the shimmering skyscraper at One World Trade Center. Known as the Freedom Tower, this soaring edifice is now the tallest building in the western hemisphere.
