Itinerary
America’s oldest public park—once a grazing field, a military camp, and even a site for public hangings. Now it’s just a great place to stroll.

The golden dome stands tall over Beacon Hill. Inside? Politics, history, and the spirit of a still-evolving democracy.
A symbol of fiery sermons and abolitionist passion. Its 217-foot steeple once dominated Boston’s skyline.
Final resting place of Paul Revere, John Hancock, and Samuel Adams—plus the victims of the Boston Massacre.
The oldest public school in America. Franklin went here... briefly. There’s a statue of him to mark the spot.
Two haunting sculptures tell the story of Irish immigrants fleeing starvation and finding new life—and hardship—in Boston.
Where the Boston Tea Party began—angry colonists, fiery speeches, and a revolution in the making.
Once a literary hub. Think Hawthorne, Emerson, and Longfellow browsing for inspiration.
Colonial power center turned revolutionary landmark. It’s where the Declaration was first read to Bostonians.
A ring of bricks marks the place where tensions boiled over in 1770—five colonists died, sparking a movement.
Nicknamed the “Cradle of Liberty.” It’s where patriots debated British rule—and where you can now grab lobster rolls.
Boston’s historic open-air market. It’s loud, chaotic, and full of cheap produce and personality.

About Boston
Boston, the capital of Massachusetts, is a compact harbour city of colonial history, red-brick streets, universities and seafood on the New England coast.
Boston was founded in 1630 and played a central part in the American Revolution, and its Freedom Trail, a red line on the pavement, links sixteen sites across the old centre, from Boston Common to Charlestown. Beacon Hill has gas lamps, cobbled streets and brick row houses, while the North End, the old Italian quarter, has the Old North Church and the Paul Revere House.
