Hollywood’s favoured location, Boston is a popular city in the United States, which for many years has boasted of its diverse neighbourhoods. It is also deeply connected with historical events such as the American Revolution and of course, the top-notch schools such as Harvard University and Boston College. It’s also a longtime favourite of filmmakers as more than 400 movies have been filmed here including some classics. TV show shootings have also been equally popular with Cheers, Ally McBeal and The Practice having been filmed in Bean Town. As a visitor, one of the ideal ways to explore this city is to participate in the Freedom Trail. It is a red-lined route that leads you to 16 historically significant sites — each one an authentic treasure. Explore museums and meeting houses, churches, and burying grounds. Discover the rich history of the American Revolution, as it began in Boston, where every step seems to narrate a tall saga.

Once here, you must also check out the local flavours. For instance, Food Trucks are a big hit and there are select ones in over 20 different locations throughout Boston, all offering various types of food. Ready?
