9/11 Memorial. Is the museum worth seeing? How much time should we allocate to the memorial/museum?

My wife and I are going to NY this weekend for the marathon. We have a little time to kill on Friday and are thinking about going down to the 9/11 memorial. I see you can buy tickets to the museum, but wondering if it's worth it to go. Is the memorial by itself sufficient, or should we also go to the museum?

Absolutely but be prepared to do something light-hearted or low-key afterwards.

I think we're going to go the marathon expo after, so that should be a good way to redirect.

One of the must-dos in New York. But like Soupie said, you'll want something to lighten things up after

I don’t like museums but could spend many hours in the 9/11 museum.

Absolutely. Try to get tickets for the early time slots when they limit people inside
