Highly recommend visiting this place when in New York! We booked in advance so we didn't need to wait in line and to secure tickets to the Crown.

The visiting the crown requires you to book in advance as there is limited tickets released each day - we booked 2 months in advance to secure our spot. You need to be able to walk up 354 narrow steps on a sprial stair case so be ready for that! We went in winter and where still sweating when we got to the top so if your going in summer be prepared to get really hot as there's no air conditioning!! But it was still worth it and not many people can say they've been in side lady liberties head ;)

When visiting the crown you'll need to out your bags in a locker which cost $2 each but you can take up your camera you'll also need to go though a second set of airport style security screening.
