Visiting the historic houses and driving to Minute Man National Park are fun ways to learn about our nation's early battles for independence. In downtown Lexington, from April to October, guides dressed in colonial attire are available to give walking tours. On Patriots Day Weekend each April, you can see battle re-enactments by volunteers in 18th century garb, and attend the annual events commemorating the American Revolution. The Liberty Ride is a trolley tour that offers a convenient way to see the sites. (Less)
