    Twin Lights is a very beautiful and powerful two-headed lighthouse. It also left its mark on the history of the United States, as the place where the Pledge of Allegiance was first officially spoken in 1893. Also, in 1899, it was here that Guglielmo Marconi set up his first wireless telegraph.
    You can enjoy a walk around the grounds and climb the lighthouse to get a closer look at the lens mechanism.
    From Wednesday to Saturday, you can book a tour of the lighthouse by calling +1 (732) 872-1814. You should call at least three days in advance because the lighthouse is quite popular.
    The lighthouse is closed on Mondays, but you can still enjoy the exterior and the grounds.
