"Beantown!" Boston by MatthewMetcalfe

Boston Travel Guide: 3,766 reviews and 7,922 photos

I've made many trips to Boston on my way to other places. Only recently have I been able to see things in the City.

Historical sites are all over Boston dating back to before the Revolutionary War. Being from Atlanta where Sherman burned pretty much everything, seeing Colonial America is pretty neat.

Boston also has great seafood and many cultural sites. I've come across some really good restaurants while up in Boston.

Boston is home to many of America's historical roots. It's also home to the oldest park in Baseball (for now).

Finally, the curse was broken in 2004! Go Sox!

Relive history in Boston!
