Massachusetts Attractions – North of Boston MA Region Attractions

The North Shore or north of the Boston area of Massachusetts is home to many of the state’s most haunting attractions. In 1692, the infamous Salem witch hunt took place in Salem, Mass. Today, the mystique of those times is still in the air. The Salem Wax Museum of Witches & Seafarers will captivate you. The resemblances are so real, you’re bound to be spooked for days. The Tsongas Arena, located in Lowell, MA, offers sporting events, concerts and family shows depending on the day.
