Top Things to Do on Your Trip to Boston
Here are some top recommendations on things to do when visiting Boston.
1. Freedom Trail:
The Freedom Trail is a 2.5-mile route journey that takes you by historically significant sites. It's also the same route that the famous Paul Revere rode through yelling "The British are coming, the British are coming!". On this route, you'll be taken back in time to the American Revolutionary period.
2. Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall:
Grab a bite to eat or a souvenir at Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall. These bustling marketplaces offer items from local vendors and plenty of food options. We highly recommend trying the classic New England clam chowder or chowdah' and pairing it with a lobster roll.
3. New England Aquarium:
Be immersed in the underwater world at the New England Aquarium. Here you'll find penguins, sea turtles, sharks, jellyfish, and interactive exhibits. The aquarium pays a major focus on marine conservation. You can find tickets to visit the aquarium here.
4. Beacon Hill:
Beacon Hill is a picturesque neighborhood in Boston that has gas-lit lamps and colonial architecture that will make you feel like you've walked back in time to America's earliest period.
5. Newbury Street
Newbury street is the high-end shopping district of Boston. You'll find tons of shops and restaurants to fill up your bags with clothes and souvenirs.
6. Fenway Park:
Are you a fan of America's favorite pastime? Baseball fans should not miss a visit to Fenway Park, home to the iconic Boston Red Sox. Watching a baseball game in this historical stadium is truly unforgettable.
