New York: Ground Zero Guided Walking Tour

About
It’s an emotional yet inspiring journey to Ground Zero with this walking tour, guided by a New Yorker with a personal connection to the tragic events of September 11th, 2001.
The tour begins at St. Paul’s Chapel, a stunning church dating back to 1766, and one of New York City’s oldest. Discover how this beautiful sanctuary played a vital role in supporting the community after the 9/11 attacks, and learn about the miracle that allowed it to remain standing, despite being just a block away from the devastation.
Stroll towards the poignant 9/11 Memorial, and discover the symbolism behind the memorial plaza’s most iconic features, such as the Survivor Tree and Reflecting Absence, known as the largest man-made waterfalls on the continent.
