Dynabeat Tim 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2007 You guys are lucky.....took awhile to think of one....but Gettysburg and the Little Big Horn are two that come to mind. Its sad to think of all the human life that was lost at both places. Mothers and Fathers cried then, as they do now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starfish 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2007 I live near Philadelphia - we're surrounded by history here. I'm less than a mile from Moland House, which is where Washington and Lafayette camped and joined forces, and a short drive from the spot where Washington crossed the Delaware on Christmas Day, 1776 to attack Trenton.

wild1forever 152 Report post Posted December 4, 2007 I've been to a lot of the places already mentioned. I think my favorite was Pompeii. I also loved going to the Dachau concentration camp in Munich, although it was an extremely somber and haunting place to visit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LizzieB 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2007 I've been to Stonehenge twice, both times on a sunset tour where you get to go inside the circle. I just love it there! It's so neat. But I would say the most historical place I've been is the Acropolis in Athens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Refugee 7 Report post Posted December 4, 2007 I've seen the Alamo, Tombstone, where they first found gold in CA, I also saw Moland House that Nancy is stalking about. :003: I've also seen some very old temples in Japan and went to the World Expo there in 1970.
