Boston Common, Boston : Dating back to 1634, Boston Common is America’s oldest public park; Puritan colonists originally purchased the 44 acres for livestock to graze on. British soldiers camped here before the battles of Concord and Lexington, and Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the luminaries who have spoken on this turf. Today, the downtown haven is popular for activities like ice-skating and rides on the iconic swan boats in the adjacent Public Garden lagoon. (T&L)
