The skyscrapers of Midtown Manhattan surround the lake at Central Park in New York City. Established in 1857, Central Park is the most visited urban park in the country, with more than 40 million park-goers each year. From the bandstand to the horse- drawn carriage rides to the zoo, the park contains a number of cultural touchpoints that help make it one of the most filmed locations in the world.
PHOTO BY ISE: The heart of the Big Apple is Times Square, the bustling intersection near Broadway where gigantic video screens and electronic billboards keep the lights bright in the “City That Never Sleeps.” More than 300,000 visitors come to these pedestrian-friendly five blocks of downtown New York each day. Times Square is a center for shopping, dining, and sightseeing. Mingle with people from all parts of the planet as they make their way to the “Crossroads of the World.”

Your tour of Boston’s Freedom Trail includes the historic Park Street Church, an active Congregational church constructed in 1809. The 2.5-mile Freedom Trail takes you to 16 historically significant sites as it traces the birth of the American Revolution and the development of “The Cradle of Liberty.” Created in 1951, the Freedom Trail is a unique collection of museums, churches, meeting houses, burying grounds, parks, a ship, and historic markers that tell the story of the American Revolution and the city of Boston.
Boston Common is the oldest city park in the United States. Created in 1634, the 50-acre park lies at the foot of Beacon Hill and marks the southern end of the Freedom Trail. Boston Common includes the Central Burying Ground, the last resting place of painter Gilbert Stuart, composer William Billings, and Boston Tea Party participant Samuel Sprague. The park was also the site of the first organized football game in the country, as commemorated by the Oneida Football Monument.
