This is the oldest park in the country and used to serve as a meeting place to strategize during the Civil War.

Boston Common is one of the most historic and beloved parks in Boston, Massachusetts. It's a great place to visit if you're in the area and are looking for the perfect way to spend a beautiful day outside. The park was founded in 1634 by Puritan colonists and in the 1830s, the park officially became a public space after being used as grazing land for animals and as a meeting place for military drills during the Civil War. Today, it still serves as an important part of our city's history and culture.

Boston Common happens to be the oldest park in the United States, and there are plenty of things to do here, including walking, going on a run, relaxing on the grassy fields, or paddling the swan boats in the lake. There are also many events that take place in the park, including concerts and festivals. It's also home to several historic monuments and statues, including one that was built in honor of George Washington. Paying a visit to this historic 50-acre park is seriously a must the next time you’re in Boston!
