Scenery terbaik di National 9/11 Memorial WTC, Ground Zero. [10pics]

Sambutan ulang tahun smokey 9/11 terrorist-on-the-plane attack ke atas World Trade Center kelmarin menyaksikan pembukaan rasmi Memorial Kebangsaan 9/11 (National 9/11 Memorial Park) di Ground Zero, New York City.

It turned out to be something yang tak lagi berbaloi untuk dibom, especially bila consruction utama memorial adalah kolam air terjun buatan manusia yang terbesar di Amerika Utara.

Ianya direkacipta agar menjadi satu taman yang damai, yang menyajikan bunyi harmoni air terjun tatkala pengunjung melangkah masuk. Semakin masuk ke dalam, semakin bunyi air menguasai gegendang, dan apabila anda berada di pinggir kolam memorial itu, semua bunyi bising kota metropolitan New York lenyap sama sekali. All you listen to is a deep, mesmerizing, fallen drops.

Taman memorial tersebut direka oleh Micheal Arad, yang terpilih daripada 5,200 penyertaan dari 63 buah negara. Kolam air terjun buatan itu, The Reflecting Pool, dibina exactly on the Twin Tower base center. Ianya sebagai pencetus rasa absence, atau kehilangan, dalam diri setiap pengunjung hasil dari kerja tangan pengganas.

“We wanted to create a place that remarked on absence but also did so in a way that connected the site back into the life of the city,” said Arad, explaining that they did not want the memorial to be something set apart from the city that people visited once then forgot about. “It’s something that is set very much in the life of New York City. People will be here every day whether there’s visitors to the memorial, or office workers coming down here, or whether it’s neighborhood residents with their kids. It’s bringing the past into the present and saying that the legacy of that day is with us every day.
