Famous for everything from the Red Sox and Paul Revere to Cheers and seafood, Boston is a popular destination. Part history lesson, part modern metropolis, the Hub offers attractions to suit every everyone. It’s easy to get around, either on foot or by the user-friendly public transportation system. The Freedom Trail, a well preserved pedestrian path weaves in and out of historic neighborhoods, from the Boston Common and Public Garden to the gold-domed State House and Fenway Park. Between landmarks, you can shop stores on Newbury Street, have an authentic Italian meal in the North End or browse the antique shops and distinctive red-brick buildings of Beacon Hill. The more culturally inclined will not want to miss the city’s world-class museums, theater and music venues. Boston also features a renowned aquarium, children’s museum and science museum.
