Boston, Massachusetts, more than any other American city, is where the nation's history began. Its landmark buildings - from Faneuil Hall to Paul Revere's house - tell the story of an upstart young colony. For vacationers, the focus is the downtown area, anchored by the expansive green space of Boston Common and the Public Garden and bursting with tourist attractions. You'll rub elbows with Yankee pragmatists, Irish fatalists, Kennedy liberals, Brahmin blue-bloods, die-hard Red Sox fans and sleep-deprived students of every stripe - Boston has one of the highest concentrations of universities in the world. If you can say, "Park the car at Harvard Yard," without using an "r," you'll fit right in.
