Founded back in 1630 by Puritan colonists from England, Boston is one of America’s oldest cities, home to a wealth of historic sites and buildings. Boston played a vital role in the American Revolution, and history buffs can follow in the footsteps of early revolutionaries as you walk the famous Freedom Trail, which will take you to see 16 historic sites. You can join a guided tour, or follow the interpretive trail at your own pace. Other must-see attractions in the city include the Kennedy Presidential Museum, the Boston Tea Party Ships and several historic districts packed with wonderful old buildings. For a break from history you can take a stroll through some beautiful gardens, enjoy great shopping, and round off your day with a wonderful fresh lobster dinner. 25 of the Oldest Cities in the United States - Photo: Crin/Fotolia
