Faneuil Hall and Environs


This is Boston City Hall.  It's right in the midst of the historic district.

This is Faneuil Hall which is the seat of history for Boston.  Faneuil was a French Huguenot as was Paul Revere who came over because they were persecuted.

This is Samuel Adams who was John Adams' cousin.  He was one of the main revolutionaries.

This is one of the first taverns in Boston.

This is Paul Revere's house.

Paul Revere's statue.

Looking our from the Paul Revere Mall toward Old North Church.

There has been a market on this site since the beginning of Boston.  Now it's full of food stalls.

The inside of Faneuil Hall.  The painting is of Daniel Webster declaiming.  That's George Washington to the right.

A very nice shaded mall.  It's very tourist friendly.
