Historical Boston: The Record Breaker

Boston holds more American "firsts" than any other city: the first public park, the first public school, the first public library, the first subway, the first marathon. Stroll through neighborhoods that shaped the nation and discover why historical Boston earned its reputation as the cradle of American civic life.

This historical Boston walking tour takes you from the grand facade of the Boston Public Library through Copley Square, across the Public Garden, into Boston Common, up to the State House, and deep into the old city. At each stop, a piece of history snaps into focus.

Along the way you will encounter the site where Alexander Graham Bell first transmitted sound, the church where Charles Dickens first read A Christmas Carol aloud, the oldest restaurant in America, and the oldest pub. Every stop is a record. Every block is a chapter of American history.

La mission : Votre histoire à Boston

You have built a career out of being first. First across the finish line, first to the summit, first through the door.

But your greatest ambition is still ahead: to visit every historic "first" in one city, in one run, before anyone else does it.

There is only one city in America where that race is even possible.

Boston.

Founded in 1630, Boston was first in ways that shaped an entire nation: the first public park, the first public school, the first public library, the first subway, the first marathon.

History stacked on history, block by block.

But you are not the only one who knows this. Others are after the same record.

Time is short. The city is waiting. Your race through history starts now.
