Angel Island Immigration Station, California

Dormitory at Angel Island Immigration Station in San Francisco Bay, California, where officials detained, inspected, and examined approximately one million immigrants between January 21, 1910 and November 5, 1940. Since the first use of Angel Island as an artillery station in the 1860s, it has hosted many generations of gun batteries, up until 1962. Meanwhile it served as the Bay Area's primary quarantine and "disinfection" station, as the immigrant processing and detention center known as "the Ellis Island of the West," and as a prisoner of war camp during World Wars. The main difference between Ellis Island and Angel Island was that the majority of the immigrants that traveled through Angel Island were from Asian countries, such as China, Japan, and India. It is currently a State Park administered by California State Parks and a California Historical Landmark.

Título: Angel Island Immigration Station, California

Descripción:

Traducción automática: Dormitorio en la Estación de Inmigración de Angel Island en la Bahía de San Francisco, California, donde los funcionarios detuvieron, inspeccionaron y examinaron aproximadamente a un millón de inmigrantes entre el 21 de enero de 1910 y el 5 de noviembre de 1940. Desde el primer uso de Angel Island como estación de artillería en la década de 1860 , ha albergado muchas generaciones de baterías de armas, hasta 1962. Mientras tanto, sirvió como principal estación de cuarentena y "desinfección" del Área de la Bahía, como centro de procesamiento y detención de inmigrantes conocido como "la Isla Ellis del Oeste" y como Campo de prisioneros de guerra durante las Guerras Mundiales. La principal diferencia entre Ellis Island y Angel Island fue que la mayoría de los inmigrantes que viajaron por Angel Island eran de países asiáticos, como China, Japón e India. Actualmente es un parque estatal administrado por los parques estatales de California y un monumento histórico de California.
