Considered the oldest public park in the U.S., Boston Common is the starting point of the Freedom Trail in Boston, Massachusetts. From there you can pick up a map of this 2.5 mile walking trail highlighting 16 historic landmarks, such as the site of the Boston Massacre, Faneuil Hall, Old North Church and the Bunker Hill Monument. If self-guided tours aren’t for you, don’t fret. You can pick up a free guided tour of the trail by a National Park Service ranger at Faneuil Hall.
