A
historical
location
you'll
visit
as
part
of
your
Freedom
Trail
walk.
Standing
at
the
location
where
the
Boston
Massacre
occurred
is
a
profound
experience.
It's
typically
a
bit
busy,
as
it's
located
near
main
roads
and
walkways,
with
pedestrians
coming
and
going,
but
it's
quite
easy
to
approach.
There's
no
cost
to
see
it,
and
the
location
doesn't
require
waiting
in
line
or
navigating
barriers.
The
site
of
the
Boston
Massacre
is
marked
by
a
large
circle
inset
with
the
date,
March
5,
1770,
in
front
of
the
Old
State
House
(original
place
of
colonial
governance).
There's
something
tragic
yet
poetic
about
the
juxtaposition
of
historical
events
when
you
stand
there
in
person.
It
feels
altogether
*real*.
There
are
occasional
music
performances
in
front
of
the
Old
State
House
as
well,
if
you
want
to
pause
a
moment
and
soak
it
in.
