Perhaps, every tourist, going to go to New York for the first time, reminisces about the statue of liberty and thinking about how to get there. On the Internet already have enough information about how not to take a tour and see the statue of liberty is free, but my article will not be superfluous.
Nothing to pay per view this attractions, you just need to take the free ferry that crosses from the island of Manhattan on the neighboring island of Staten Island.
How to get to the ferry
In order to get on the ferry, it is necessary to take the Metro ($ 2.75) to Whitehall street station (this yellow line subway (R) in the direction of Brookline).
After leaving the underground remains pass literally 100 metres up to the Terminal, where large letters written by Staten Island Ferry.
Go to the Terminal and climb to the top. No you do not need to buy ticket-steam free for all. Here is the schedule of ferries.
It's easier to say that they depart every 30 minutes 7 days a week 12:00 am a day. Cancellation may be due to the weather.
Take the right side of the deck. From there, you will see the statue of liberty (Statue of liberty). The ferry is not as close as tourist boats, but still shows it quite well and with this distance.
The journey takes about 25 minutes. If you do not want to linger for a long time on the island of Staten island, then hurry on exit and catch the return ferry at once, and you don't want to wait for 30 minutes. On the way back enjoy views of New York City and the statue of liberty once again.
Good you travel!
