Harvard University
Harvard is the first institute of higher education in America, and it’s still one of the most prestigious ones in the whole world. It has an astounding Visitors Center that was established in 1962, where now students can provide the Official Historic Tour of Harvard, starting with the moment it was founded by John Harvard back in 1636.
Besides that, it’s a great excuse to visit the beautiful New England town of Cambridge, MA.
Pearl Harbor National Memorial
If you’re lucky enough to make it to the Hawaiian island of Oahu, you HAVE TO visit Harbor National Memorial. The memorial still preserves, interprets, and commemorates America’s involvement in WWII, starting with the fateful event that occurred here on December 7, 1941, that started everything.
One World Observatory and National September 11 Memorial & Museum
This place honors all the innocent lives that were lost during the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Then, many of the brave men and women who tried to rescue those innocent people also lost their lives in the process.
It’s a beautiful memorial and museum, and the next generation of World Trade Center stands as a symbol of the resiliency this country has proved so many times.
