About
Ground Zero marks the attacks on Paddy's Pub and the Sari Club, which killed 202 people, among them 38 Indonesians and many visitors from Australia and Europe. Each 12 October, victims' families, consulates of about 21 countries and local leaders gather here for a simple prayer service, and a Peace Museum is still being built. It is a place of mourning on a busy nightlife street, so keep voices low and photos respectful.
