What to expect
The Ellis Island Immigration Museum has three floors and provides free audio guides. You can visit the immigration area, luggage room, medical examination room, etc. according to the route. Photos of immigrants from all over the world are hung on the walls, and their eyes are full of hope. Now Ellis Island is no longer the only channel for immigration to the United States. Only pictures and ruins are still telling the history of immigration.
