Awesome Boat Trip To The Statue Of Liberty In New York & Crown Access
In this video I take a boat trip from Battery Park in Manhattan across to Liberty Island to see the world famous State Of Liberty. This incredible monument was constructed in France and was presented as a gift to the United States Of America in 1886.
Statue Cruises are the official tour operator that provide boat trips to both Liberty and Ellis Island from 2 different pick up locations. Along with taking in the fantastic views of New York City, I share the complete experience of travelling across to the island including a full tour of the various different shops and facilities. I also head up to the Crown of the Statue Of Liberty for a unique look inside this incredible structure!

Statue of Liberty, Liberty Island, Upper New York Bay, United States, North America
The Statue of Liberty is a colossal neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in the middle of New York Harbor, in Manhattan, New York City. The statue, designed by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and dedicated on October 28, 1886, was a gift to the United States from the people of France. The statue is of a robed female figure representing Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, who bears a torch and a tabula ansata (a tablet evoking the law) upon which is inscribed the date of the American Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776. A broken chain lies at her feet. The statue is an icon of freedom and of the United States: a welcoming signal to immigrants arriving from abroad. Bartholdi was inspired by French law professor and politician Édouard René de Laboulaye, who commented in 1865 that any monument raised to American independence would properly be a joint project of the French and American peoples. Due to the troubled political situation in France, work on the statue did not commence until the early 1870s. In 1875, Laboulaye proposed that the French finance the statue and the Americans provide the site and build the pedestal. Bartholdi completed the head and the torch-bearing arm before the statue was fully designed, and these pieces were exhibited for publicity at international expositions. The torch-bearing arm displayed at the Centennial Exposition in 1876 and in New York's Madison Square Park from 1876 to 1882. Fundraising proved difficult, especially for the Americans, and by 1885 work on the pedestal was threatened due to lack of funds. Publisher Joseph Pulitzer of the World started a drive for donations to complete the project that attracted more than 120,000 contributors, most of whom gave less than a dollar. The statue was constructed in France, shipped overseas in crates, and assembled on the completed pedestal on what was then called Bedloe's Island. The statue's completion was marked by New York's first ticker-tape parade and a dedication ceremony presided over by President Grover Cleveland. The statue was administered by the United States Lighthouse Board until 1901 and then by the Department of War; since 1933 it has been maintained by the National Park Service. The statue was closed for renovation for much of 1938. In the early 1980s, it was found to have deteriorated to such an extent that a major restoration was required. While the statue was closed from 1984 to 1986, the torch and a large part of the internal structure were replaced. After the September 11 attacks in 2001, it was closed for reasons of safety and security; the pedestal reopened in 2004 and the statue in 2009, with limits on the number of visitors allowed to ascend to the crown. The statue, including the pedestal and base, was closed for a year until October 28, 2012, so that a secondary staircase and other safety features could be installed; Liberty Island remained open. However, one day after the reopening, Liberty Island closed due to the effects of Hurricane Sandy; the statue and island opened again on July 4, 2013. Public access to the balcony surrounding the torch has been barred for safety reasons since 1916. The origin of the Statue of Liberty project is sometimes traced to a comment made by French law professor and politician Édouard René de Laboulaye in mid-1865. In after-dinner conversation at his home near Versailles, Laboulaye, an ardent supporter of the Union in the American Civil War, is supposed to have said: If a monument should rise in the United States, as a memorial to their independence, I should think it only natural if it were built by united effort a common work of both our nations. The National Park Service, in a 2000 report, however, deemed this a legend traced to an 1885 fundraising pamphlet, and that the statue was most likely conceived in 1870. According to sculptor Frédéric Bartholdi, who later recounted the story, Laboulaye's comment was not intended as a proposal, but it inspired Bartholdi. Given the repressive nature of the regime of Napoleon III, Bartholdi took no immediate action on the idea except to discuss it with Laboulaye. Bartholdi was in any event busy with other possible projects; in the late 1860s, he approached Ismail Pasha, Khedive of Egypt, with a plan to build a huge lighthouse in the form of an ancient Egyptian female fellah or peasant, robed and holding a torch aloft, at the northern entrance to the Suez Canal in Port Said. Sketches and models were made of the proposed work, though it was never erected. There was a classical precedent for the Suez proposal, the Colossus of Rhodes: an ancient bronze statue of the Greek god of the sun, Helios.

맨해튼 앞 바다에서 여행을 시작했다. 뉴욕은 네덜란드 식민지, 영국의 점령지를 거치며 세계적인 대도시로 발전했다. 페리호를 타고 15분 정도 가면 우뚝 서있는 자유의 여신상이 보이기 시작한다. 자유의 여신상은 프랑스가 미국독립 100주년을 기념해 선물한 것이다. 여신상이 있는 리버티 섬에 내린 관광객들은 인증사진부터 찍는다. 지면에서 오른손에든 횃불까지 높이는 93.5미터. 여신상 내부 계단으로 올라가봤다. 여신상의 내부 골조는 에펠탑을 만든 에펠이 만들었다. “바깥쪽은 공기 중에서 녹색으로 변했죠. 안은 지금도 갈색이에요. 바깥만큼 공기에 많이 노출되지 않으니까요.” 구리로 만든 여신상이지만 백 여 년 이상 비바람에 노출돼 녹색으로 보인다. “아주 얇아요. 2mm, 2mm를 조금 넘어요. 피부처럼 얇죠. 그래서 여신상은 매일같이 이렇게 해요. 맞아요, 매일같이 이런 식으로 움직이죠.” “매일이요?” “바람이 많이 부니까요.” 자유의 여신상은 아메리칸 드림의 상징이다. 오른손으로 잡은 횃불과 왼손에든 독립선언문은 자유와 독립을 상징한다. 이민의 꿈을 싣고 거친 대서양을 건너온 사람들은 자유의 여신상이 보이면 안도했다고 한다. 여신상 받침대 내부에는 박물관이 있다. 눈길을 끄는 것은 전에 쓰던 횃불이다. 횃불은 여신상의 정식 명칭인 ‘세계를 밝히는 자유’를 상징한다. 이 얼굴은 여신상과 똑같이 만든 것이다. 모델이 누군지 여러 가지 설이 있으나 조각가가 어머니를 참고했다는 의견이 유력하다. 무게가 225톤이나 되는 여신상. 프랑스에서 만든 뒤 여러 조각으로 분해해 미국으로 보내 4 개월 동안 다시 조립한 것이다. 여신상은 원래 이렇게 구리 빛이었다. 여신상은 등대 역할을 했다. 여신상이 든 횃불에 불을 밝혀 뉴욕 항을 안내했지만 구름에 반사된 빛이 오히려 선박 운행에 방해가 돼 등대 기능을 없애버렸다.

I started traveling in the ocean in front of Manhattan. New York grew into a metropolis of the world through the Dutch colonies and British occupied territories. In about 15 minutes you can see the statue of liberty standing on the ferry. The Statue of Liberty was presented by France in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of American independence. Visitors to the Statue of Liberty Island are taken from certified photos. The height of the torch from the ground to the right hand is 93.5 meters. I went up the stairs inside the statue. The inner frame of the statue was made by Eiffel, who made the Eiffel Tower. The outside turned green in the air. The inside is still brown. It is not exposed to the air as much as the outside. It is a statue made of copper, but it is exposed to rain and snow for over a hundred years and looks green. It is very thin. A little over 2mm, 2mm. It is as thin as skin. So the statue is like this every day. Yes, I do this every day like this. Every day? There's a lot of wind. The Statue of Liberty is a symbol of the American Dream. The torch in the right hand and the Declaration of Independence in the left hand symbolize freedom and independence. Those who crossed the rough Atlantic with dreams of immigration say that they were glad to see the Statue of Liberty. There is a museum inside the statue stand. The eye - catching torch is the one I used before. The torch symbolizes the 'freedom to illuminate the world', the official name of the statue. This face is the same as the statue. There are various theories about who the model is, but it is likely that the sculptor refers to her mother. The statue weighs 225 tons. It was made in France and then disassembled into several pieces and sent back to the United States for re-assembly for four months. The statue was originally copper like this. The statue was a lighthouse. The lights of the Statue of Liberty illuminated the New York Harbor, but the light reflected in the clouds interfered with the operation of the ship and destroyed the lighthouse function.

Flying over the Statue of Liberty in New York City
The Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World; French: La Liberté éclairant le monde) is a colossal neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in New York Harbor in New York City, in the United States. The copper statue, a gift from the people of France to the people of the United States, was designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and built by Gustave Eiffel. The statue was dedicated on October 28, 1886.
The Statue of Liberty is a figure of a robed woman representing Libertas, a Roman liberty goddess. She holds a torch above her head with her right hand, and in her left hand carries a tabula ansata inscribed in Roman numerals with JULY IV MDCCLXXVI (July 4, 1776), the date of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. A broken chain lies at her feet. The statue became an icon of freedom and of the United States, and was a welcoming sight to immigrants arriving from abroad.
Bartholdi was inspired by a French law professor and politician, Édouard René de Laboulaye, who is said to have commented in 1865 that any monument raised to U.S. independence would properly be a joint project of the French and American peoples. Because of the post-war instability in France, work on the statue did not commence until the early 1870s. In 1875, Laboulaye proposed that the French finance the statue and the U.S. provide the site and build the pedestal. Bartholdi completed the head and the torch-bearing arm before the statue was fully designed, and these pieces were exhibited for publicity at international expositions.
The torch-bearing arm was displayed at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876, and in Madison Square Park in Manhattan from 1876 to 1882. Fundraising proved difficult, especially for the Americans, and by 1885 work on the pedestal was threatened by lack of funds. Publisher Joseph Pulitzer, of the New York World, started a drive for donations to finish the project and attracted more than 120,000 contributors, most of whom gave less than a dollar. The statue was built in France, shipped overseas in crates, and assembled on the completed pedestal on what was then called Bedloe's Island. The statue's completion was marked by New York's first ticker-tape parade and a dedication ceremony presided over by President Grover Cleveland.
The statue was administered by the United States Lighthouse Board until 1901 and then by the Department of War; since 1933 it has been maintained by the National Park Service. Public access to the balcony around the torch has been barred for safety since 1916.
Location and tourism
The statue is situated in Upper New York Bay on Liberty Island south of Ellis Island, which together comprise the Statue of Liberty National Monument. Both islands were ceded by New York to the federal government in 1800. As agreed in an 1834 compact between New York and New Jersey that set the state border at the bay's midpoint, the original islands remain New York territory despite their location on the New Jersey side of the state line. Liberty Island is one of the islands that are part of the borough of Manhattan in New York. Land created by reclamation added to the 2.3 acres (0.93 ha) original island at Ellis Island is New Jersey territory.
No charge is made for entrance to the national monument, but there is a cost for the ferry service that all visitors must use, as private boats may not dock at the island. A concession was granted in 2007 to Statue Cruises to operate the transportation and ticketing facilities, replacing Circle Line, which had operated the service since 1953. The ferries, which depart from Liberty State Park in Jersey City and Battery Park in Lower Manhattan, also stop at Ellis Island when it is open to the public, making a combined trip possible. All ferry riders are subject to security screening, similar to airport procedures, prior to boarding. Visitors intending to enter the statue's base and pedestal must obtain a complimentary museum/pedestal ticket along with their ferry ticket. Those wishing to climb the staircase within the statue to the crown purchase a special ticket, which may be reserved up to a year in advance. A total of 240 people per day are permitted to ascend: ten per group, three groups per hour. Climbers may bring only medication and cameras—lockers are provided for other items—and must undergo a second security screening.

Bartholdi was inspired by French law professor and politician Édouard René de Laboulaye, who commented in 1865 that any monument raised to American independence would properly be a joint project of the French and American peoples. Due to the troubled political situation in France, work on the statue did not commence until the early 1870s. In 1875, Laboulaye proposed that the French finance the statue and the Americans provide the pedestal and the site. Bartholdi completed the head and the torch-bearing arm before the statue was fully designed, and these pieces were exhibited for publicity at international expositions. The arm was displayed at the Centennial Exposition in 1876 and in New York's Madison Square Park from 1876 to 1882. Fundraising proved difficult, especially for the Americans, and by 1885 work on the pedestal was threatened due to lack of funds. Publisher Joseph Pulitzer of the World started a drive for donations to complete the project that attracted more than 120,000 contributors, most of whom gave less than a dollar. The statue was constructed in France, shipped overseas in crates, and assembled on the completed pedestal on what was then called Bedloe's Island. The statue's completion was marked by New York's first ticker-tape parade and a dedication ceremony presided over by President Grover Cleveland.
The statue was administered by the United States Lighthouse Board until 1901 and then by the Department of War; since 1933 it has been maintained by the National Park Service. The statue was closed for renovation for much of 1938. In the early 1980s, it was found to have deteriorated to such an extent that a major restoration was required. While the statue was closed from 1984 to 1986, the torch and a large part of the internal structure were replaced. After the September 11 attacks in 2001, it was closed for reasons of safety and security; the pedestal reopened in 2004 and the statue in 2009, with limits on the number of visitors allowed to ascend to the crown. The statue, including the pedestal and base, closed beginning on October 29, 2011, for up to a year so that a secondary staircase and other safety features can be installed; Liberty Island remains open. Public access to the balcony surrounding the torch has been barred for safety reasons since 1916.
