Massachusetts was where the original colonists settled and it has a lot of historically significant things to see and do. There are also plenty of parks and family friendly places to make any trip to Massachusetts one to remember.

16. Holocaust Memorial (Boston)

This is New England’s tribute to the victims and survivors of the Holocaust. The artist behind it was a Holocaust survivor who was liberated from a concentration camp when he was just 14 years old. You can do a self guided tour or request a guided tour. Leave about an hour here to pay your respects.

17. John Ward House (Salem)

Built in 1684, this house once stood opposite the jail used in the Salem witch trials. It was relocated in 1910 and restored as a museum space. Its beautiful architecture is worth seeing so stop here when you’re in Salem and spend about an hour./a>

18. Middlesex Fells Reservation (Stoneham)

A massive 2500 acres and commonly called just “The Fells,” this rocky area is suitable for hikers, mountain bikers, horseback riders, cross country skiers, and fishing. If you’re an outdoor lover, you’ll spend a whole day here hiking, fishing, and boating.

19. Blue Hills Reservation (Milton)

Named for the bluish hue the mountains take from a distance, this reservation is more than 7,000 acres and has more than 125 miles of trails. There’s a lot of outdoor recreational activity available here – cross country and downhill skiing, hiking, horseback riding, golfing, swimming, picnicking, and rock climbing to name a few. You could easily spend an entire day here in the great outdoors.

20. Bunker Hill Monument (Charlestown)

A 221 foot obelisk marks the spot where colonial soldiers built a fort out of mud and endured a difficult battle with British forces in the Revolutionary War. You can climb the obelisk during certain hours and stop at the museum across the street to learn about this epic battle.
