Tour of the Ellis Island Immigration Museum, Lower New York Harbour, USA

Take a look inside one of New York's "Top 10" places to visit, the Ellis Island Immigration Museum.

The museum is in such pristine condition that you have a really clear idea of exactly what the immigrants went through before they stepped foot on United States soil.

It is a very informative and cultural experience and one can't go to New York and not see it as Ellis Island (in a way) IS New York.
