Boston is urban yet still retains much of its Colonial charm.
Boston is one of America's oldest cities. Incorporated in 1630, it is located on a peninsula along the Atlantic coast and was the center for revolution during Colonial times. Much of the area still retains its colonial heritage and charm. Today, Boston receives more than 12 million visitors annually with tourism being the top industry. Visitors come to New England to view the historic sites, visit Harvard, or to see a championship football or baseball team. Tourists who want to avoid the morning traffic delays have the option of staying in Boston's many suburbs.
