点评:We booked a Friday morning guided tour of the United Nations Headquarters. It was a very interesting experience! We did have to submit a security clearance application (sent to us, following purchase of tickets). Had to show up one hour before the tour to go through the security process and get a visitor badge; that office is across the street. Then we went through standard security to get into the HQ grounds. We wandered about the plaza to see the public art and the views and the building before we went inside. Lots more public art and historical displays inside. After checking in at the tour booth, we waited just a few minutes until our tour was called. Our tour guide was good, but at times difficult to understand since English is not her native language. The tour itself was interesting as we learned about the United Nations, its composition and its work. We saw a variety of displays and were able to see the Security Council Room and the General Assembly. Everyone should visit the United Nations!!
