March is Women’s History Month, and while it’s great to read about notable women who have shaped our country’s history, why not take a trip to some of the key landmarks that played a role in making America what it is today? Here are a few important places worth visiting:
Seneca Falls, New York
Seneca Falls was instrumental in the women’s rights movement, as it was the home of the first women’s rights convention. Today, you can go and visit the National Women’s Hall of Fame, which honors bold women like Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who fought for women’s equality. Seneca Falls is also home to the Women’s Rights National Historic Park.
