The capital of Massachusetts every year attracts thousands of tourists. And it's not a surprise: Boston gave birth to the American Revolution, it's the very place, from which the War for Independence from Britain started. Besides the places that are connected with the history of the USA, Boston can boast of very interesting works of art, wonderful parks, good shopping and splendid restaurants.
Freedom Trail. Freedom Trail is a 4-kilometer way that intersects the center of Boston and connects the 16 most important sights of the city. The trail is marked by the red line. Freedom Trail starts at the Boston Common Park, the oldest public park in the USA; on its territory during 1775-1776 the British used to camp. In the documentation center one can get a brochure and a map of the itinerary 'Freedom Trail'. From the park the trail goes to The State House, which was built, when America got independence; nowadays the government of Massachusetts takes place there.
