A Tourist's Guide to the Statue

Many people have asked me "As a New Yorker, do you think I should go to the Statue of Liberty?" and every time I tell them the same thing: OF COURSE.

Lady Liberty is a jaw dropping sight. Standing at a whopping 305 ft. just being near Liberty Island will awe you. The key to seeing this amazing sight is going in the off season. Going in the off season gives you the massive advantage of avoiding the crowds ultimately giving you a superior time.

Go not only to see, but to learn. On your journey you will be educated on the history of Lady Liberty and its symbolism. Oh and don't worry, there's plenty to explore. With 14.717 acres to move about in, I assure you you'll never get bored. Many people say although the security and long lines are an inconvenience, but it is still worth it to see the Statue. While you're there, the experience feels almost surreal and otherworldly. In other words, GO!!!!
