A brief introduction to Boston

Renowned for captivating history, intriguing art, and its energetic sports scene, Boston is brimming with incredible cultural experiences and attractions.

Start your journey by exploring the cobblestone streets of the Freedom Trail, which will enable you to access 16 historical landmarks - all of which are significant parts of American history. From there, consider visiting one of Boston’s many world class museums, with some of the most notable ones being the Museum of Fine Arts, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and the Museum of Science.

Art lovers will appreciate the numerous galleries dotted throughout the city. Among the most popular are the Society of Arts and Crafts and the Robert Klein Gallery.

Boston is also home to several championship-winning sports teams, such as the New England Patriots, Boston Celtics, and Boston Red Sox. For a truly unforgettable sporting experience, visit historic Fenway Park - home of the Red Sox and the oldest stadium in Major League Baseball.

Food enthusiasts will have plenty to sink their teeth into as Boston boasts an exquisite dining scene. We recommend trying lobster rolls, clam chowder, oysters, and cannolis.

For those who want to enjoy both a shop and stroll, Newbury Street in Back Bay is brimming with many designer retailers and grand Victorian mansions to look at and explore as you wander through the streets.

Nature lovers will love exploring Boston Public Garden as it has over 600 varieties of trees and an ever-changing assortment of flowers. Known as America’s first public garden, you can admire the magnificent statues and graceful swans that adorn the area or take a 15-minute ride on the Swan Boat, which has been taking people around the lagoon since 1877.
