Statue of Liberty

The Statue of Liberty is one of the world’s most iconic monuments and a must-see for all visitors to New York City. Located on Liberty Island, just off the coast of Manhattan, it was a gift to the United States from France in 1886 and is an enduring symbol of freedom, democracy, and opportunity. Visitors can get up close to the statue, climb up to the top, and explore the museum and gift shop. The Statue of Liberty welcomes more than four million visitors each year, making it one of the most visited attractions in the world.
