Statue of Liberty
Aug 25, 2008 by Josh from Sydney, Canada
Overall Rating: 6 User Rating Score: 6

  • Very cool to see.
  • Small observatory deck not a great view.

“Very cool to see, long security lines, I recommend not going up because you wait for an hour or more but jut going on the ferry and getting of to look. Also circle line boat cruise is a good way to see it, you don't stop but you go pretty close!”
