Boston is not a place where you’ll ever run out of interesting things to do and see. It is in this stunning city that you’ll find beautiful architecture, ranging from 17th-century buildings to modern skyscrapers. Historic sites, such as the Freedom Trail and Quincy Market will keep you busy brushing up on your American history. Cultural experiences such as museums and the world-class Boston Symphony Orchestra and Boston Pops are some of the nation’s best.

Easy day-trips from the city include heading over to nearby Cambridge to enjoy Harvard Square and all the local shops and restaurants. The Adams National Historical Park documents the lives of the United States’ second and sixth presidents, as well as beloved first lady Abigail Adams. A short drive will take you to Lexington and Concord, where the first shots of the Revolutionary War were fired.
