The ultimate inspiration view, Lady Liberty standing tall with the Manhattan sky line and Verrazano Narrows bridge in the distance.
1. Always buy your tickets from the authorized ticket agency, NEVER buy them from someone on the street and be sure to use the one official website.
2. If it's your first time, take a tour. I've been several times in my life, so I just like to walk around and take in the view and the good vibes Lady Liberty shares with all.
3. Ellis Island is awesome, worth the time, if you do both Liberty Island and Ellis Island you could easily spend almost all day visiting these amazing sights. Take your time, read everything, learn stuff, absorb the history of these amazing landmarks, they represent the best of our country's past.
