  • incredible burying ground ... the oldest in Boston! make sure to see the "Scarlet Letter" grave that Nathaniel Hawthorne said was the inspiration for his famed work. and check out the Joseph Tapping gravestone, which might be the best gravestone in Boston
  • One of the oldest remaining sites in Boston. A great look into the past of our nation. Mayflower pilgrims are buried here. Governors are buried here. The King’s Chapel is next door and is a treat in its own right. I highly recommend walking the Freedom Train and strolling through here along the way.
