Boston, MA
For my last blog, I wanted to highlight another city that I enjoy visiting. This charming New England city is a treasure trove of history, culture, and mouthwatering cuisine. In this blog, we’ll go on a journey through some of the most iconic things to do, must-visit places, and delicious dining experiences in Boston.
For the people who love history, Boston is the city for you. Boston is full of many historical sites. We start at the Freedom Trail, a 2.5-mile-long path with 16 historical streets. Make sure to not miss the Massachusetts State House, Paul Revere’s House, and the Old North Church. For a quick stop head to the Quincy Market where clam chowder and lobster rolls await you. To end this section check out the Boston Commons. It’s one of the oldest public parks in the country. Take a swan boat ride in the Public Garden, right next door.
Moving on to the art and culture of the city. Explore the rich art world at the Museum of Fine Arts. Marvel at the masterpieces from various cultures and periods. Next head to the next museum. Visit the charming museum with its beautiful courtyard and a collection of art throughout centuries. Last but not least head over to the famous Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox (I’m personally more of a Yankees Fan). If you go during the baseball season, go catch a game it’s truly a wonderful experience. Even if there isn’t a game you can always tour the iconic stadium.
While in Boston take advantage of the local delicacies like lobster rolls, baked beans, and Boston cream pie. You can also dine at Boston’s top restaurants, such as Oleana, Menton, or Neptune Oyster. Another option is the Newbury Street where you can shop and dine. To end your trip to Boston, there’s no better way to immerse yourself in history and coastal charm than with a day trip to Salem: famous for its witch trials and rich maritime history, where you can explore the Salem Witch Museum, visit the House of the Seven Gables, and savor seafood by the sea at one of the charming waterfront restaurants.
Boston is for the artist. Boston is for the historians. Boston is for the foodies. Boston is for everyone. So, as you prepare to bid goodbye to this captivating corner of the United States, remember that Boston will always welcome you back with open arms, ready to share their tales of the past and the flavors of the present.
