book your tickets in well advance to go pedestal/crown to see the green lady of freedom...!! -

been there 3 times and every time it fascinates me... starting from boat ride till back to den...
but you have to book a ticket well in advance to be there at pedestal or even 4 months before to go to crown...
Tickets are almost same if you go to island/pedestal.
The ferry goes from battery park ( NYC) and liberty state park (from jersey city) and you can interchange at the island.

boat halts at Ellis Island (entering point of slaves into the USA in 1700-1800s) and there you can see the museum how slaves were treated, how they have come to the USA and all.

at liberty island, you can get your certificate of 'when you visited here'. When you go to the pedestal, you must check museum. here they have beautifully explained how statues come to the USA in pieces, how it is constructed, it's specifications. And everything... that is worth a watch...

fun fact-
During the restoration completed in 1986, the new torch was carefully covered with thin sheets of 24k gold.
