Visiting Boston Massachusetts
Freedom Trail
It will take you through many important landmarks in the city, including the Paul Revere House, the Bunker Hill Monument, the USS Constitution and the site of the Boston Massacre of 1770. The Freedom Trail is a little more than two miles overall, and it winds through Boston with a series of brick pathways to keep you on track. In addition to the big-name attractions, you’ll also pass by a number of shops, museums, churches, graveyards and historical meeting houses.
Fenway Park
As one of the oldest baseball stadiums in the United States, Fenway Park has been carefully preserved as an athletic landmark, so it has a classic, clean-cut vibe that harks back to the golden days of America’s favorite pastime. Schedule a tour of Fenway Park if you want to experience the heart and soul of Major League Baseball!
Boston Common
As one of the oldest public parks in the United States, Boston Common is the Massachusetts equivalent of Central Park or the Golden Gate Park.
Boston Harbor
There are lots of Boston attractions at the Boston Harbor. Not only does it carry huge significance as the historical site of the Boston Tea Party, but it’s also home to museums, lighthouses, shipyards, statues and landmarks.
New England Aquarium
There’s so much to see and do at the New England Aquarium that you’ll need a dozen pairs of eyes to catch everything. From the cute little penguins to the colorful sea turtles, it’s a smorgasbord of fun!
Faneuil Hall Marketplace
Despite the singular name, it’s actually the site of four different marketplaces centered around a public plaza, and you won’t know which way to turn as you eat, drink, shop and sightsee. You might even witness buskers or jugglers performing for cash!
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Offering more than 450,000 artifacts, the Museum of Fine Arts is the largest museum in Massachusetts and the fifth-largest museum in the United States. It’s the kind of place where you can get lost for days among its galleries, display cases and show rooms.
Museum of Science
The Museum of Science is easily one of the top things to do in Boston. Offering everything from a live butterfly garden to a hallway filled with optical illusions, it will delight visitors who are interested in biology, chemistry, history and paleontology.
Newbury Street
Newbury Street is one of the best places to visit in Boston. It’s a mecca for high-end retail, and its reputation has given rise to some of the trendiest shops in the country.
Prudential Tower
Known to locals as “the Pru,” this 900-foot skyscraper is a marvel of modern architecture. It’s also a hopping tourist attraction filled with everything from restaurants to retail shops, so the interior is just as exciting as the exterior. Visitors can explore everything from food courts to fashion boutiques as they wander the shopping centers of Prudential Tower.
