Area Information
Boston, first incorporated as a town in 1630, and as a city in 1822, is one of America's oldest cities, with a rich economic and social history. What began as a homesteading community eventually evolved into a center for social and political change. Boston earned its place in history in the days preceding the Revolutionary War.

Now a captivating cosmopolitan city and the economic and cultural hub of New England, Boston still maintains a European edge and is loaded with charm, character and culture. This vibrant urban destination boasts a spectrum of world-class entertainment and arts, action-packed sports, legendary landmarks, a sizzling nightlife and dining scene, and exciting events and exciting attractions

Built on almost 400 years of history, Boston holds tightly onto its past as it parades into the future. Visitors will find well-preserved dashes of the Colonial, Federal, and Victorian eras alongside a modern, walkable city infused with green spaces and waterfront. However, it is still possible to rock the cradle of democracy in Boston by following the 2.5 mile Freedom Trail through the city, exploring 16 museums, churches, meeting houses, and other historically significant sites along the way.
