Here are what people on Google are saying about this Memorial & Museum:

"Absolutely stunning museum! The amount of stories and artifacts that they have here is incredible. The price for entrance is absolutely reasonable. Everything is really well presented and laid out. The museum itself is really well designed, you actually go underneath where the towers once stood. It is a very somber place, not a dry eye in the house."

"Very humbling and touching experience. The pools are beautiful. It's a must visit."

"Amazing, Sobering, and Worthwhile. From the moment you start down the path of this amazing memorial, you know you're in for an emotional visit. The entrance is a haunting walk through voices recalling their loved ones, or their experiences of the day. The memorial is laid out extremely well. Admittedly, there were a few moments of being completely overwhelmed by everything. Be prepared for an emotional roller coaster."

"One of the most beautiful memorials I have ever seen. It truly takes your breath away. What a great way to honor those we lost. They have kiosks where you can search for specific names to find their location and read that person's back story. "
