Review & FAQ:

Boston Common is the oldest park in the United States, and the starting point of the Freedom Trail. With over fifty acres to wander through either by foot, by bike, or on horseback, you will need several hours to fully explore the park. Many famous world leaders have delivered speeches at the Common. With so much history to discover, it is a good idea to take a tour provided by the Freedom Trial Foundation and learn about the Common's significance to American history.
