Massachusetts is home to great American cities that played a big role in the country’s history. One of those cities is Waltham, which played a role during the American Industrial Revolution.

Today, the city is home to estates built by philanthropists and millionaires like Gore Place. Plus, there are a number of tourist attractions and great restaurants within the city.
