Statue of Liberty
Admission includedStanding on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, the Statue of Liberty rises 305 feet from pedestal base to torch tip, commanding the skyline in a way no photograph fully prepares you for. The moment you step off the ferry and look up at Lady Liberty's copper-green face, the scale and weight of what she represents settles over you. The Statue of Liberty has welcomed arrivals to America's shores since 1886, and that sense of arrival still lingers in the salt air around her.
