    The epicenter of our city is the World Trade Center. All year round, visitors can easily find great dining, entertainment, and shopping options throughout the area, both indoors and outdoors.

    So far, one of the most favorite place in NYC. For me, this place is a symbol of a rebirth from it's ashes. It only shows, how a nation stands back again? It's an amalgamation of lost and hope. I don't know, how it used to look before but now it looks beautiful with an all round city view. I love that super fast but still one whole minute elevator ride. I felt a blood rush during that in an exciting way. The door opens and you find yourself in a dark confined space, closely packed with other visitors. They start playing a video on the walls around you about everyday life of NYC. As soon as that little video ends, those walls began sliding up and you get to see the most magnificent view of the city from the top. I am attaching photos but they don't do justice. Tickets are $60 I think but discounts available for groups. A must go place....

    Very moving. A great tribute to the men and women who lost their lives are innocents and the brave men and women who ran towards the flames rather than away. I felt for those who called their loved ones to tell them that they loved them very much. The display of twisted metal and wrenchage is a great tribute to those who gave their lives to save others.

    The 9/11 Memorial is an absolute must-stop when visiting NYC. Allow ample time so that you are not rushed. Allow your emotions to swirl as you read, listen, watch, and remember. Allow yourself to move at your pace. Once you are done, walk Outside to the reflecting pools and process what you experienced. And I highly encourage you to visit multiple times over the years.

    such a sad tragedy that happened 2 decades ago. the way they honor everyone; the responders, the victims, the survivors is so beautiful. went to the museum (did a tour definitely recommend), the WTC observatory (the views are incredible especially around sunset time) and walked around outside near the memorial pools. anyone who comes to nyc this is a must go. helps you learn more about what happened and just overall an amazing experience.

    There always something to discover while walking around this concrete and glass jungle. I truly love the architectural designs that somehow combine historical and contemporary buildings into a marvelous story of survival, pride and hope. Water keeps running and its sound reminds me the way life should always be. Never stopping, always flowing and screaming to the wind, we are alive listen to us, remember us....never forget.

    Wow! The memories of that day. You need to visit here. It brings to light all of the heroes of that day. God bless them all...

  • 5/5 Krishna S. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a symbol of American resilience and ingenuity. While the location has solemn significance, it is also an extremely uplifting place. The Oculus is spectacular. I haven't seen any place in the world with so much Italian marble, including Italy itself! I've never visited the museum and will one of these days. In addition to being an architectural gem, the place is also very practical. Being a transportation hub, you can get to any place in NYC in a cinch. It is a little sad to see the place so empty. While the place continues to be beautiful, ultimate beauty is when it is full of happy people!!

    Went to the most visited place in last two decades. Late for the museum. But could go around and feel the incident. Two pools are there where the twin towers were present

    No matter how many times you visit the World Trade Center area there is always a new memory to add in life. There are new seasons, and believe it or not there is always something new to learn from the wonderful place like this. God bless America and all people from all corners of the earth that visit New York.

    What could be nicer then a brand new, state-of-the-art, beautiful, modern building in the heart of the capital of the financial world with some of the best views you will see anywhere in the world? Too bad that it is currently half empty, but I would guess that as Covid becomes part of history the building will return to be a bubbling source of inspiration and innovation!

    We visited here to see the reflecting pools and the 911 Museum. The entire experience is very somber and sobering. You experience ask aspect of emotions so bring tissue

  • 5/5 Ryan B. 5 months ago on Google β€’ 305 reviews
    One of THE places to visit whilst you're in New York. Historic, emotional, and extremely well done after 9/11. We spent some time here having lunch and going for a coffee before going into the 9/11 museum. It's very clean and there are strict guidelines for walking on the grass etc. Would visit again when in New York.

    This very fantastic place where you can see the new structures of each building, I recommend you visit it

  • 5/5 Jimmy 10 months ago on Google
    Take a fast ride to the top of One World Trade. This is an experience for sure. View the city from the highest point without getting in a helicopter or airplane. Deli and restaurant on site. You can truly see forever on a clear day.

    1 one trade center has incredible views from the highest point in lower Manhattan. The 360 observation is remarkable and worth the price of admission. Try to come early to avoid waiting. The elevators get you to the top in seconds. There's even a restaurant in the top which I didn't try. It's an huge building with symbolic meaning and visible from most areas in the city.

    During my visit here, I heared some stories of people who have witnessed the devastating incident in America's history. Though this placed was horrifying at some point in the past, but look at it now, everything is beautiful. Also, I pray for all the souls that they now find peace at the hand of the Father.

  • 5/5 Andy F. 1 year ago on Google
    Best view of the city, absolutely stunning and well worth the admission fee. It was way less crowded than I thought it would be which is probably because there's allowed time slots. The elevator ride up/down is fantastic too - the walls are big screens that show the historical development of the peninsula. The restaurant/bar up there are reasonably priced, reservation recommended. If you can only go up one of the big skyscrapers, go to the One World Trade Center.

    A very solemn place to visit. Beautiful gardens and walking paths. The pools are great to view both day and night. It was very quiet even though there were hundreds of people there

  • 5/5 Pauline C. 6 months ago on Google β€’ 122 reviews
    Queued used our City New York Pass, we added a tour on , booked a time slot 11.30am , was given head sets for our tour, our tour guide give so much information , could see the emotions , was like living the day seeing what we saw on TV. So very sad and very brave people. The museum was done so respectfully to all. myself and husband had a peaceful moment sat down at the end of the tour listening about all the amazing people whose family member or friend was talking about each individual. So glad we visited .Also, we had a piecefull moment at the 9/11 beautiful done memorial. All the names are so beautifully carved around the edge of the water feature/memorial.

    After more than 20 years, back to the place of horror. The wounds have (almost) healed, but the scars will remain. One World Trade Center is a worthy successor to the Twin Towers.

  • 4/5 Magy 2 months ago on Google β€’ 118 reviews New
    A very pretty and cool place to walk in, lots of buildings and spots to visit. We went to the 9/11 memorial/mall while we were here. Great area.

  • 3/5 Jason T. 3 months ago on Google β€’ 83 reviews New
    Worth seeing once given it’s the tallest building in Manhattan, but I think the overall experience at Empire State Building is much better. WTC gift shop leaves much to be desired.

  • 5/5 Keith S. 1 month ago on Google β€’ 62 reviews New
    I didn't realize how the absence of the towers would affect me. Nevertheless, the city has done a great job remembering the past! Go NY!

  • 5/5 simon l. 5 months ago on Google β€’ 56 reviews
    Stunning buildings in all directions and the highlight of the day was the view from 1 world trade centre. It's hard not to be moved by the memorials for the Twin Towers, but I'm so glad I made this visit for the second time

  • 5/5 Serena S. 6 months ago on Google β€’ 35 reviews
    So many bright lights and informative videos. Going up in the lift is like you're flying as you experience the changes made to New York over the years with a 3d kind of video, very clever! At the top you can hire a Tablet which, when pointed at landmarks gives you the name of what you're looking at and a short information video.

  • 5/5 Crystal H. 5 months ago on Google β€’ 31 reviews
    It was such an amazing place to visit. Reading the names of the people who died was profound. I was particularly impacted by the names that included an unborn child. The water constantly flowing felt like a washing away of the negative thoughts.

    Beautiful memorial to commemorate one of the most tragic days our countries had to endure. From the inception of the World Trade Center Complex, the early hours of September 11th, 2001, and the days following. This is not something you want to pass on, this is a MUST while in New York. Never forget.

    This place a beautiful and stunning to look at! I haven't gotten to the top yet but I really really want to someday

  • 5/5 jerrell b. 8 months ago on Google
    The World Trade Center is something to behold. It looks like Superman's fortress of solitude or something. They finally finished the subway hub now. Awesome job. The architecture is something to see. The place is incredible. The artwork is really nice.

  • 3/5 may β€œHudson valley e. 2 years ago on Google
    Pandemic WTC and the Oculos means less tourists and people. You're annoyed when there's too many people, but you miss them when there gone. Too quiet....

  • 4/5 Michael Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience. We met a wonderful museum worker who went to college with our daughter! We live in small-town PA! It was a nice experience

  • 5/5 Art DeLaCruz I. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommended, tallest building in NYC and the United States. Staff are excellent with great attitudes and customer service, very professional. My daughter and I had a great time. Definitely purchase tickets in advance, skip the line.

  • 5/5 Twix W. 2 years ago on Google
    The memorial and the museum are both very well done, it does take much longer than I anticipated to see everything. We spent over 6 hours there and didn't see everything.

  • 4/5 Pauline S. 2 years ago on Google
    Observatory on the 102nd floor. Great for photos and seeing all of New York. Price is anywhere from 40 to 70 depending on how long you're willing to wait to enter , experience is short and once you're finished viewing the observatory that's pretty much it. It's a fantastic view but a short experience. Great for photo taking and for new york first timers

  • 5/5 Sarah H. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful tribute fountains and museum on the grounds where the World Trade Center twin towers once stood.

  • 5/5 Andrea D. 2 years ago on Google
    This moment was surreal, just knowing that you are standing where so many innocent people lost their lives or gave it in an attempt to save others. Speechless. The new building is beautiful.

  • 5/5 Carlos A. 2 years ago on Google
    It was so sad. I can’t really suggest anyone going there because is an extremely sad experience. I don’t even know how to rate it. I picked 5 stars it deserves the 5s but be advised: you’re going to be sad.
