Ten years ago, the awful attacks were made on New York and Washington DC. When I visited the capital in February, I was taken to the memorial which has been constructed outside the Pentagon - where the body of the aeroplane came to rest. Each bench is a memorial to one of the individuals who died on the site, ten years ago today.

The Pentagon
One of the most moving of my visits in the Washington area was to the memorial for those died in the terrorist attack on the Pentagon on 9/11. It is a very simple - but very moving memorial. It can be accessed by foot from the Pentagon Fashion Centre (walk westwards from the Macy's northern entrance - cross the road on the pedestrian crossing - and follow the signs to the Pentagon Memorial via a tunnel under the roads). Alternatively you can walk from the Pentagon metro station. Further details are available here.
