Happy Freedom Trail~

Last Friday , we had a happy field trip in downtown,Boston. This city left me such a deep impression that combines classical and mordern style, attrcting me a lot. we went to the Freedom Trail, which stands many senses of mystery and antiquity. Walking on Freedom Trail,air filled with historical atmosphere around me,i thought i was back to the past. What impressed me most is King's chape, founded in 1686 by Royal Andros of Province of New England,under the rule of King Jame II of England. Futhermore, it was the first Anglican Church in New England .As a small wooden meeting house at the corner of Tremont and School Streets, the gowing congregations acquired more land on the east side of its lot. Then ,Peter Harrison redesigned King's Chapel ,which was built of stone to replace the wooden church.Entering the church, the organ in King's chapel told us that music was an important part of this church, so many famous musicans were from this church, such as William Price , King's chapel's first musician .Today it is an independent Christian church with a Unitarian Christian theology.Recital per week on Tuesday attracts many visitors.Although this church is so small, it covers much historical meaning ,this is why oceans of people want to visit here.
