Plymouth is a small town with big historical significance. This coastal town is the location of the first Pilgrim settlement and the oldest town in New England. Plymouth is a popular tourist destination during the Thanksgiving holiday season as it was the site of the first Thanksgiving feast.
Pilgrim Memorial State Park is home to a boulder that is claimed to be the place where the pilgrims first touched land. A replica of the original Mayflower, called The Mayflower II, is typically moored at the park. Plimoth Plantation, a popular family destination, is a living history museum with a recreation of the original settlement, craft activities, and several live animals.
