Bunker Hill Monument

Like many other attractions in Boston, the monument is also related to the War of Independence, and the Battle of Bunker Hill was an important battle. The monument was built earlier and mimicked the obelisk, not enough to go up to see the scenery.

Located in a small square in the town of Char, above a hill. It is a very meaningful broadcast in the United States, but visit you a lot, but the surrounding scenery is also very beautiful

The monument commemorates a battle during the American War of Independence, located on the hill above Charles Town. It is quite interesting to know about American history and understand Boston's history, and the surrounding environment is also good.

The last stop on the Freedom Road in Boston, but we put it on the first. The reason is simple, because it takes 294 steps to climb the monument. The whole stop on the Freedom Road takes a day, even a day is not enough. If you use this as a terminal, you will probably not have the strength to climb up after arriving. From the subway station, you can see the towering monument from a distance. Because it was snowing that day, the sky was very poor, so it was surrounded by gloomy sky. In front of the monument is a statue of the commander of the Battle of Bunker Mountain. Enter the inside of the monument, there is a small exhibition hall inside to learn about the Battle. At the instructions of the enthusiastic staff, we began to pluck up the courage to ascend. Forget about every 10 or 20 steps, there will be numbers reminding you how high you have climbed. Anyway, when we finished climbing 294 steps, people were almost there, breathing thicker than dogs. At the top, you can enjoy the panoramic view of Boston from different angles through a few small windows. But still, the weather is bad, so the view is really not good.

Charlestown's Bunker Hill Monument, but unfortunately can't climb. Go back and see the big book "The Town" ​​​On the Top of Monument as American Spirit

We came here by chance, the first two days were stormy and the atmosphere was low so the stairs to the top were closed. We were a bit disappointed but glad to have an excuse. Anyway, it’s a great place, it’s an open area, and the small house next to the monument is an early 20th century architectural art, with Italian marble and ornate columns. Best thing is the ferry back to Boston is nearby and for just $3, saves the toil of walking. (And you won't miss the scenery)

The Bunker Monument (Bunker Hill Monument), located on the hill in Charlestown, commemorates the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775, the first major armed conflict between the British and colonial militias, the two sides were killed and wounded, one of the most famous battles of the War of Independence. The monument began construction in 1827, and was built for visitors in 1843. It is one of the earliest monuments in the United States. It is 67 meters high and can climb to the top to see the magnificent scenery around. There is also a small museum next to the monument, which is very good.
