Boston Bunker Hill Monument | Climb the Historic Stairs and Enjoy the City Views

🎈If you're planning a trip to Boston, the Bunker Hill Monument is a must-see. 📌The Bunker Hill Monument is an obelisk built to commemorate the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775 during the American Revolutionary War. It stands 67 meters (221 feet) tall and is made of granite. It was built between 1827 and 1843 and is now a National Historic Landmark. 📍The monument is located in the Charlestown neighborhood of Boston, on Bunker Hill, within the Boston National Historical Park. It is the final stop on the Freedom Trail, a historic walking route that takes you through Boston's revolutionary past. 🗼The monument is unique in that it is hollow, and you can climb the 294 steps to the top. The climb is not easy, but the views from the top are worth it. On a clear day, you can see a 360-degree view of Boston, including the skyline, the busy harbor, historic buildings, and peaceful parks. 💐In front of the monument is a statue of William Prescott, who was a militia commander during the Battle of Bunker Hill. His story is closely tied to the monument and the battle. 🌳The monument is located in a National Historical Park, which is a great place for both patriotic education and relaxation. You can enjoy the sun on the lawn, watch people play, and enjoy the peaceful and meaningful atmosphere. 💗The Bunker Hill Monument is not just a building, but a symbol of the heroism and history of the American Revolutionary War. It offers visitors a unique experience of both history and beauty. Don't miss it when you're in Boston! 😉😉😉
