A Colonial Tour from TeachersFirst: Boston

Boston was the largest of the colonial New England cities, and it became a focal point for opposition to English policy toward the colonies. Paul Revere, the Boston Tea Party, and the Boston Massacre have all become famous as elements leading up to the break from English rule.

Boston is still a major city with many historical and cultural attractions. There are all sorts of things to see. The links below will help you find the places that were important during the colonial period.
