American Independence Day calls for family get-togethers, picnics, a short weekend trip and of course, fireworks. It's an American tradition to have a bedazzled sky on the day U.S. won its freedom. As the country celebrates its 240^th year of independence, we give you a list of cities where a celebratory firework display resounds with joy, pride and immense patriotic fervour.

Boston

The Esplanade is where the crowd gathers for 4th of July fireworks display. However, it tends to be extremely crowded with extra security, lack of space and could very well turn into a nightmare for those who are claustrophobic.

Nevertheless, there are other locations that offer a great view of the fireworks as well. If you're in Boston, then be sure to check out Bunker Hill, Charlestown. Other locations such as the Prudential Tower, Prospect Hill, Somerville and Wright's Tower in Medford offer a view of the city's skyline and might just impel you to flex your photography skills.
