I love sharing my home state of Massachusetts with others. It's a small state, but with Boston, Plymouth, Cape Cod, Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, and the Berkshires, it offers lots of great destinations.
If you are planning to visit New England, I definitely recommend including a trip to Massachusetts. For history buffs, Plymouth and Boston are bucket list destinations. If you love the beach, you'll want to include a summer visit to Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, or Nantucket.
Massachusetts is also home to the National Basketball Hall of Fame, the Dr. Seuss Museum, Thomasland, and Salem.
