Ellis Island is a great place to visit, it doent matter what age

you are. Even though most of the Island is found to be part
of New Jersey it’s only a short ferry ride away. Ellis Island
is know for immagration, so is now suprise that while on the
island you should visit Ellis Islands Immagration Museum.
Also while on Ellis Island you are able to tour the Lady
Liberty including her crown which hasn’t always been
allowed.
Number 2 : 9/11 Memorial &
Museum
I found this museum
one of my favorite. This
is a museum based on
an event that happened
in our lifetime, so I
think it is very impor-
tant to check it out if
you are in N.Y.C. The
museum is the home to
many exhibits honoring
those who were killed
during the nine-eleven
terrorist attacks.

“THE MEMORIAL will remember and honor the nearly three thousand people who
died in the horrific attacks of February 26, 1993, and September 11, 2001. The Memo-
rial will consist of two massive pools set within the footprints of the Twin Towers
with the largest manmade waterfalls in the country cascading down their sides.
They will be a powerful reminder of the Twin Towers and of the unprecedented loss
of life from an attack on our soil.”
Number 3: Empire State Building
The Empire State Building is one of NewYorks main attractions.This land NewYork
landmark reaches more than a quater of a mile into the sky above the heart of Manhattan.

visitors are able to visit a glass pavillion that
allows you to see an unbelievable view of
the busy streets of Manhattan that is be-
neath them, from 1,050 feet in the air. There
are also a couple resturaunts and coffee

Although this zoo is very small

only 5 acres, it is worh seeing,

The zoo also has a new addition
called the Tisch Children’s Zoo.

feed a few of the animal and take
