Top US Military AcademyโWest Point Guide (1)๐
Recently traveling in the US, I took the opportunity to visit West Point, one of the world's top four military academies. ๐ข๐ Established by President Jefferson in 1802, it has produced notable alumni like Patton, MacArthur, and Eisenhower. ๐ฟ As the oldest military academy in the US, there are many places worth exploring here. ๐ There are two ways to visit the campus. Citizens or green card holders can visit on their own by registering online in advance. ๐ข๐ Foreign visitors can only join a guided tour, entering the academy by bus with a tour guide who will explain the history and interesting stories of West Point, including its role as a military stronghold during the Revolutionary War. ๐บ Trophy Point: This spot features cannons captured from the Revolutionary War to the Spanish-American War. ๐ข๐ Located at the S-shaped bend of the narrow Hudson River, the view is absolutely stunning! ๐ #NewYork ๐
