Check out all the places seen in this video:
As one of the original Thirteen Colonies and birthplace of the American Revolution, it is no wonder Massachusetts is renowned for its rich history. It was here in the early seventeenth-century that the first colonists arrived and set up settlements. Tucked away in the northeast of the United States in New England, its long Atlantic Ocean coastline is dominated by the three ginormous bays that shape it. While countless historic sites litter the Bay State, it also has scenic spots such as Cape Cod for holidaymakers to enjoy. Here’s a look at the best places to visit in Massachusetts:

Places to see in ( Waltham Abbey - UK )
Places to see in ( Waltham Abbey - UK )
Waltham Abbey is a suburban market town in the Epping Forest District of Essex, the metropolitan area of London, and the Greater London Urban Area. Lying on North East London's outskirts, it is located 15 miles from central London. It is on the Greenwich Meridian, between the River Lea in the west and Epping Forest in the east, situated north of the London Borough of Waltham Forest and east of the London Borough of Enfield. It is the resting place of King Harold Godwinson, who died in the Battle of Hastings in 1066.
Waltham Abbey takes its name from its former abbey, now the Abbey Church of Waltham Holy Cross, a scheduled ancient monument that was prominent in the town's early history. The town is within the large civil parish of Waltham Abbey which was known as Waltham Holy Cross until 1974. The parish has a town council and is twinned with the German town of Hörstel.
The name Waltham derives from weald or wald forest and ham homestead or enclosure. The name of the ancient parish was Waltham Holy Cross, but the use of the name Waltham Abbey for the town seems to have originated in the 16th century, although there has often been inconsistency in the use of the two names. Indeed, the former urban district was named Waltham Holy Cross, rather than Waltham Abbey. There are traces of prehistoric and Roman settlement in the town. Ermine Street lies only 5 km west and the causeway across the River Lea from Waltham Cross in Hertfordshire may be a Roman construction. A local legend claims that Boudica's rebellion against the Romans ended in the neighbourhood, when she poisoned herself with hemlock gathered on the banks of Cobbins Brook.
In 1177, as part of his penance for his part in the murder of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, Henry II refounded Harold's church as a priory of Augustinian Canons Regular of sixteen canons and a prior or dean. In 1184, this was enlarged so that Waltham became an abbey with an abbot and twenty-four canons, which grew to be the richest monastery in Essex. To the abbey's west and south, the town grew as a linear development around a crossing road, although it had a single north-south High Street as late as 1848. The town's dependence on the Abbey is signalled by its decline after the Abbey was dissolved and partially demolished in 1540, the last working abbey or monastery to be dissolved. Waltham Abbey vicarage is a 17th-century timber framed and plastered building. It was given by Edward Denny, 1st Earl of Norwich to create the first curacy, but was much altered in the 18th century and later, and was more recently architecturally Grade II*listed.
The medieval Waltham Abbey Church was kept as it was close to a town and is still used as a parish church. In addition there are other remains of the former abbey – the Grade II*listed Midnight Chapel, the gatehouse, a vaulted passage and Harold’s Bridge – all in the care of English Heritage. These grounds are notable for the reputed grave of Harold II or Harold Godwinson, the last Anglo-Saxon King of England. On the site of a former gunpowder factory another museum illustrates the evolution of explosives and the development of the Royal Gunpowder Mills (an Anchor Point of ERIH, The European Route of Industrial Heritage) through interactive and traditional exhibitions and displays.
The former gravel pits in the Lea Valley and parts of the former Abbey Gardens are now in the care of the Lee Valley Regional Park Authority for recreational use and nature conservation. The Epping Forest Conservation Centre in High Beach provides information, maps, books, cards, displays and advice for visitors to the area.

Bishop's Waltham Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Hampshire, and around 10 miles southeast of Winchester, is the town of Bishop's Waltham.
The known history of Bishop's Waltham dates back to circa 640 AD, when a church is recorded to have been built here. In 904 AD, King Edward the Elder granted the land to Denewulf, Bishop of Winchester, in exchange for land in Portchester, thus accounting for the 'Bishop's' prefix, while 'Waltham' in Old English means 'wooded/foresty homestead'.
During the 1130s, Bishop Henri de Blois, brother of King Stephen, founded a palace here which became a key residence for the Bishops of Winchester, hosting many royal visitors, such as Henry II, Richard I, Henry V and Henry VIII. The palace was expanded over the centuries that followed - particularly in the 14th century under the supervision of William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester, helping it to become one of the grandest bishop's residences in England. However, in 1644 it was severely damaged by Parliamentarian forces during the English Civil War, and later slighted the following year under orders from Oliver Cromwell. After the Restoration of the Monarchy in 1660, ownership was returned to the bishops despite its ruinous state.
At the northern end of the town centre is the Church of St Peter. This is of a similar age to Bishop's Waltham Palace, having also been founded by Henri de Blois in the 12th century. The church of today, however, is predominantly composed of 16th-17th century elements, along with some 19th century restoration.
In 1863 a railway station opened in Bishop's Waltham. This was the northeastern terminus of a branch line linking to Botley on the Eastleigh–Fareham Line. The station, along with the branch line, closed to passengers in 1933, and to goods in 1962. Today, public transport to Bishop's Waltham consists of direct buses from Winchester, Fareham and various other nearby settlements.
Famous people from Bishop's Waltham include Amanda Holden (though born in Portsmouth).

Mark and Nickey visit the market town of Waltham Abbey and visit Waltham Abbey Church, possibly the last resting place of King Harold Godwinson and uncover a rather mysterious painting.
WALTHAM ABBEY AND KING HAROLD'S TOMB | ESSEX
This is another English Heritage owned site that myself and Candice decided to visit one Sunday and it is free entry. I have been here before a long time ago on a day walk. Not only can you explore the vast grounds of the abbey and it's ruins, but it is supposedly the final resting place of the last Saxon King of England, the famous King Harold (killed by an arrow to the eye at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 and succeeded by William the Conqueror). A must see and visit for any history buff!
