Boston is one of America's very first cities, wonderfully rich in history and culture. From the Arnold Arboretum to Faneuil Hall, Fenway Park to the Old North Church (made famous in Longfellow's poem "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere"), see the town as it once was and as it is today. Visit the African Meeting House, a centre for the 19th century Black community and now a museum. Relax in Boston Common, the oldest urban park in the U.S. where men once fought duels; it remains the green heart of the city with a skating rink and bandstand. The transformations will enthral and fascinate anyone interested in history.
