Bunker Hill Monument

This is Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown, MA (just outside Boston City). In my four visits in Massachusetts (MA), I wasn't able to go not even at it's base. Where in fact it's only a 30-minute drive from our apartment.

During my last assignment in MA (April-July), I took the chance to visit this one, unfortunately it was under renovation. Thanks to my zoom lens I was able took this one picture from a distance. Maybe it would be another reason to visit Boston again sometime... in my dreams perhaps, heheheh....

What took place in this hill? As far as I know, this was a major battle ground during the American revolution against the British.

I still remember this place. And I can't forget the words scribbled, words of Col Prescot(that's the guy in the statue, right?) telling his men "Don't fire until you see the whites in their eyes!" Must have been a battle so exciting to be watched.
