All about Boston
As one of the United States' oldest settlements, the New England city of Boston is thick with history. Downtown's mazelike map of one-way streets alludes to a time when travel meant horseback, and you can still wander the well-worn cobblestone pathways that ribbon through Beacon Hill ā Acorn Street is an especially popular photo op. Harvard University in Cambridge has been around since 1636, and Boston Harbor still hosts reenactments of its infamous Boston Tea Party.
But history isnāt the only reason to visit the capital of Massachusetts. There are baseball games at Fenway Park, exhibits to explore at the Museum of Fine Art, and picnic opportunities at Boston Common. Next to the Common, the Public Garden features leisurely rides on the paddle-operated Swan Boats, operating on the pond since 1877.
Cocktail bars and creative cafes serve up drinks on both sides of the Charles River. For freshly shucked oysters and Boston clam chowder, downtown is hard to beat.
What are the top things to do in Boston?

Upon her death, she dedicated the building and its exhibitions āfor education and enjoyment of the public forever.ā
Boston Public Market
Quincy Market may get more press, but the Boston Public Market is arguably more intimate, with tens of shops instead of hundreds. As an indoor market, itās also open year-round, with independent sellers hawking chocolates, doughnuts, fish, and honey ā all grown, caught, or made locally in Massachusetts.
Blue Hills Hiking
Just 15 minutes from downtown, the Blue Hills Reservation offers 200 kilometres of trails through Massachusetts hills and meadows. Hikes run the gamut from gentle walks like Houghtonās Pond Loop ā an especially gorgeous route in autumn ā to mountain climbs up to Buck Hill and Skyline.
