Boston Massachusetts
Boston had been a thriving city long before the United States itself
existed. Founded in the 17th century, Boston has been the center of
attention in New England since the colonial period. Today's Boston
continues to boast some of the best attractions to be found in the Northeastern US. As the
"cradle of the Revolution," Boston is full of history like no
other city in America. For over 350 years, some of the world's greatest patriots, writers,
thinkers, athletes and artists have called Boston their home, leaving an
indelible mark on this incredible city in the process.
A trip to Boston is necessarily a trip into American history. Boston was the center of the revolutionary movement in the 1770's, and the monuments to those glorious times still stand. Faneuil Hall (1742) was a meeting place for revolutionary leaders, and it now houses dozens of shops and restaurants. The Old State House (1713) was the site of the colonial government and is open for tours. Paul Revere's house is also open for tours, and the Old North Church (1723) and its famous lanterns are still in use. The site of the Boston Massacre where five colonists died in 1770 has been preserved. The First Public School was in Boston; some of its graduates include Sam Adams and Ben Franklin. The Granary Burying Ground in the middle of town has the graves of patriots John Hancock, Paul Revere and others. Even the Boston Tea Party is commemorated in a floating ship museum, not far from the floating museum aboard the USS Constitution, America's first great warship.
