Boston
Welcome to Boston, the big city in the convenient small city size!
Boston is storied for its role in the American revolution. But there is far more to Boston than just Revolutionary history. From museums to pro sports, from fresh seafood to Italian cuisine, Boston has somethig for everyone. It's also a great place to start your exploration of New England.
One of America's oldest cities (founded in 1630), Boston remains one of its most European in feel. Like many European cities, Boston is best explored on foot. Make sure to bring some comfortable shoes to explore the Freedom Trail (which links key historic sites downtown by way of a red line painted on the sidewalk), the Public Garden, the book shops and other stores of Harvard Square. In fact, driving is NOT recommended - our drivers and roads are insane, and the local public-transit system offers convenient and safe access to major tourist attractions, |
