The Statue of Liberty is easily in the top 3 on the list of things to see while in NY. The history behind this is fascinating and it's a great place to bring the kids to learn. The views from here are great, and you need to take a ferry from Battery Park if you are coming from the NY side. The more expensive tickets include potential tours and even to let's to go up into the base or higher.
