Visited the Ellis Island Immigration Museum after going to the Statue of Liberty. Interesting museum, although some parts did have way too much information in which was a bit overwhelming and long (might just be me though).

We were given headset with virtual guide but none of us really managed to follow the itinerary and didn't really enjoy the visit because of that. However I really liked the upper floor as there were nice pictures and no guide was needed.

Our shecude was little bit tight but it was worth checking out the museum with plenty of photos. You can understand why NYC has become a cosmopolitan city. Some photos were really heartbreaking.....

We were there for several hours but you could easily spend longer,...
