Founded in 1630, Boston is one of the oldest cities in the United States. It has a fascinating history that makes it a perfect choice for visiting over Thanksgiving, and visitors can learn about the past of both the city and the country by taking a walk along the Freedom Path, a 2.5-mile trail that leads to some of the city's most important historic sites. Walking through the crisp November air is likely to work up an appetite, but luckily many of best restaurants in the city serve up special Thanksgiving lunches and dinners. Reservations are recommended.
