Bunker Hill Monument commemorates the Battle of Bunker Hill, where the famous command "Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes" was issued. Local lore makes much of the battle misnomer; the battle actually took place on Breed's Hill. Many tourists end their Freedom Trail tour here. Some ambitious visitors undertake the upward climb of 294 steps to the top of the monument, as the view from the top is breathtaking, and one can take in panoramic sights of Boston’s skyline.
