Many years ago, Ellis Island opened its door to millions of immigrants who came to this country in search for a better life. Years after is has closed, it is now a museum that many people can now go to in order to learn how this place contributed to the way NYC is today. There are many interesting exhibits and things to see once on the Island. Not only is this place historically important, it is also a very beautiful building for anyone to see and enjoy.
