Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island

Lady Liberty, rising out of the New York Harbor off the southern tip of Manhattan, is one of America’s most iconic sights — but don’t waste a whole afternoon in NYC taking the ferry to see it up close. It’ll cost you more time and money than it’s worth, and anyway there are perfectly good views of the statue from Battery Park. Ellis Island, which is accessed via the same ferry ride as the Statue of Liberty, was an important historical site, but isn’t much of a landmark. As an immigration processing station, the island was basically a building for bureaucracy, and visiting it today is only moderately more interesting than a trip to the DMV.
