If you’re into history, and, more specifically, naval history, check out the United States Naval Shipbuilding Museum. As Quincy is home to the USS Salem, this is the only perfectly preserved Heavy Cruiser in the world. If you’re looking to do something fun outside, check out the nearby Blue Hills Reservation, a beautiful state park with incredible views. And if you’re a fan of rocks, graffiti, rock climbing, or simply want to know more about Quincy, check out the Quincy Quarries. These past stone quarries were the site of the first railroad, and are now a destination for rock climbers and graffiti artists alike.
