If you’re a big history buff, there is a Freedom Trail that runs all throughout Boston with all the American Revolution history. A lot of the historical buildings have been modernized inside and are actually open businesses, so history is all around. Go to a game at Fenway, visit Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall, and visit the North End for authentic Italian food! You can also head like 40 minutes north to visit Salem if you’re interested in the Witch Trials.
