With a population of nearly 600,000, Boston is the largest city in New England. Originally founded in 1630 by Puritan colonists, there is plenty of historical background for visitors to explore in this busy, vibrant city. Boston played several major roles in the American Revolution, including the Boston Massacre, The Boston Tea Party, and The Battle of Bunker Hill. There are plenty of opportunities to learn about these famous events in their actual settings, including the Freedom Trail, which guides visitors through 16 historical sites in a just a few hours. For Boston's high-end shopping and cuisine, find your way to Newbury Street, a nice place to wander even if you don't intend to spend. From May through October, visit the SoWa Open Market in the city's South End on Sundays for a fabulous farmers' market, crafts, art and a variety of food trucks.
For a day away, drive over to Salem, just 40 minutes from Boston. The town is known for the Salem Witch Trials, which took place in the 17th century. Pay a visit to the Corwin House, the only building that has original ties to the trials. Aside from its historical sites, Salem also has trolley tours and plenty of scenic coastlines. In the warmer months, spend some time in Cape Cod, a favourite getaway from locals from this area. Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard are the most famous towns in "The Cape", but there are many to choose from and they're all relaxed and lovely.
