A Fresh Perspective on Travel Every Day
From Paul Revere and Samuel Adams to the Boston Tea Party, Boston, Massachusetts, is arguably the most historic city in the United States.
In the early hours of April 19, 1775, Paul Revere arrived in Lexington during his significant Midnight Ride to inform local militias and revolutionaries, John Hancock and Samuel Adams, about the advancing British troops aiming to seize Colonial powder and cannons in Concord.
On that morning, the first armed confrontation of the American Revolutionary War occurred on Lexington’s town green, now commemorated as a monument to the pivotal events that shaped American history.
Modern-day Lexington is rich with this historical significance, and at various sites throughout the town, visitors can trace the events leading up to the battle, track the movements of the British regulars, and see where Hancock and Adams took refuge before their evacuation.
