Boston: A True Revolutionary City

We are packing our bags for the unconventional city of America. The intellectual Boston of Harvard and MIT. The birthplace of Poe, Kennedy, and the Red Sow. The town refused the bustling boulevards of the USA for the sake of the charm offered by its small, picturesque streets and flowered cobbled streets. Why visit it? For all the above reasons but also for her European air and her youthful heart. Because that is where the struggle for Independence began, and because even a stroll down Beacon Hill with its neatly cobbled streets and 19th-century red brick houses is enough to discover new or well-hidden aspects of yourself, adding a valuable piece to your own personal history.

Freedom Trail

The most famous route-attraction, which covers more than two and a half centuries of history. You do not need a map to follow it. Just catch the thread, the 3.5-mile red line that starts at Boston Common, America’s oldest public park, and ends in Charlestown, Boston’s oldest neighborhood with its characteristic clusters of red brick houses. While passing through the North End, the route crosses the Financial District, the “Little Italy” of the city. It includes 16 key points, including Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market with its three buildings that are now the Mecca of shopping and the Old State House, the building where the Declaration of Independence in 1776 was read.

Museum of Fine Arts

From the courtyard and its imposing entrance, one should definitely visit the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. Here you will find one of the largest collections of paintings and photographs, fabrics, statues, and even musical instruments from around the world that date back to prehistoric times and reach today. The collection of works by Claude Monet stands out – the largest that exists outside France.

John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum

It is housed in an impressive building designed by the world-famous architect I.M. Pei and houses more than 20,000 objects and works of art that silently “narrate” the life and course of the 35th President of the United States. The museum highlights the collection with models of JFK ships and the fine suits and dresses that Jackie Kennedy wore when she was the First Lady.

Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum

In this floating museum, you will experience everything that happened on the night of December 16, 1773, when Samuel Adams and the Sons of Liberty threw 342 boxes of tea into Boston Harbor. A protest against the high taxation imposed by Great Britain on the American colonies. The Tea Party movement, as it was named, was the first and decisive spark for the start of the War of Independence. So here, through high-tech interactive exhibits, documentaries, and short stories, you will learn everything about the event that changed the course of American history.

Mini excursion: You can book a seat on the Duck Boat, on the retro amphibious coach. You will tour the must-see spots of the city and then you will literally dive into the Charles River, gazing at the harbor and the skyscrapers. You can choose between two routes lasting 80 minutes.

Little secret: If you want to see the city from above without having to wait in huge queues or pay for a fortune, you can head to the Custom House Tower observatory. Located in McKinley Square, it is just over 150 feet [150 m] high in the Financial District and dates back to 1849.
