Boston is certainly among the top
destinations anywhere; its place in American history alone makes
it worth a visit. The shopping is phenomenal, and visitors
should be sure to visit Faneuil Hall Marketplace, which has a
history dating back 250 years.
Boston bills itself as "America's Walking City," and walking is
by far the easiest way to get around.
Bostonians are feeling good. They have lots of pretty things to
admire, both old and new: World Series rings. Super Bowl
trophies (three in 4 years). A picturesque river and a
rejuvenated harbor. College campuses that incorporate buildings
of all ages and styles
For visitors to Boston some of the most popular things to do and
to see
Fireworks: Twice during Independence Day festivities and again
as the New Year begins, the firmament flashes in celebration.
The Fourth of July fireworks are over the Charles River; the
Harborfest display (in early July) and the First Night show
explode above the Inner Harbor.
A Ride on a Duck: A Duck Tour, that is. Board a reconditioned
amphibious World War II landing craft (on Huntington Ave., near
the Prudential Center) for a sightseeing ride that includes a
dip in the river -- for the Duck, not you.
An
Afternoon Red Sox Game: The 2004 World Series champion Boston
Red Sox play at Fenway Park, home of the 2004 World Series
champion Boston Red Sox. The Sox play from early April to early
October, later if they make the playoffs.
A Walk Around the North End: Boston's Little Italy has an
old-world flavor you won't want to miss. Explore the shops on
Salem Street, wander the narrow side streets, enjoy some pasta,
and be sure to stop for coffee.
Boston's
most popular destination Faneuil Hall Marketplace: Street
performers, crowds from all over the world, an enormous food
court, restaurants, bars, and shops make Faneuil Hall
Marketplace a fun place to be.
An Exploration of the Museum of Science: Children's natural
curiosity takes over as they troll the displays and exhibits
that are so much fun that your youngsters probably won't even
notice it's educational.
An Excursion to the Public Garden: Low-tech pleasures abound in
this lovely park, the perfect retreat during or after a busy day
of sightseeing. Ride a Swan Boat, feed the birds, and visit with
the Mallard family of Make Way for Ducklings fame.
A Thrill "Ride": The Mugar Omni Theater (at the Museum of
Science) and the 3-D Simons IMAX Theatre (at the New England
Aquarium) offer intrepid visitors hair-raising experiences in
the safety of a comfortable auditorium. |
