10. 9/11 Memorial, New York
September 11, 2001. The date when
the world’s greatest terrorist act unfol-
ded in front of millions of TV sets, lea-
ving the world shocked. America’s pri-
de – the twin towers of the World Tra-
de Centre in New York, collapsed after
hijacked passenger planes crashed into
the towers. As images of the events
were beamed all over the world, first
emergency responders struggled to sa-
ve lives. That ill-fated day, 2977 people
lost their lives as the world stares a new
challenge to security and stability in the
21st century.
Today, the 9/11 Memorial Museum
stands at the same site once where
the twin towers stood.
The museum is also known as
the Ground Zero and documents the
tragedies, victims, brave emergency
responders, investigations, and reco-
very efforts. 9/11 Memorial Museum
is one of the popular attractions of
New York that stands as a grim re-
minder of the world’s greatest terro-
rist attack. Do visit the site and learn
