BOSTON ATTRACTIONS» Freedom Trail 139 Tremont Street The Freedom Trail is a 2.5-mile walk that hosts 16 sites pertaining to the Revolutionary War. You could take a costumed guided tour, or, more appealingly, download a map and follow your own itinerary. If you have limited time, concentrate on those sites in and immediately around the North End, which also is Boston s Little Italy. Faneuil Hall Marketplace 1 Faneuil Hall Square In the heart of downtown Boston, and along the Freedom Trail, is Faneuil Hall Marketplace. The original Faneuil Hall dates to 1742 and the festival marketplace now encompasses the North Market, Quincy Market, and South Market buildings. Customers enjoy unique, locally loved, and nationally recognized shops while indulging in worldwide cuisine at restaurants and pubs and in the world-famous Quincy Market Colonnade. The cobblestone promenades are filled with the music and jaw-dropping routines of world-renowned street performers and musicians. Red Sox game at Fenway Park 4 Yawkey Way There s nothing quite like taking in a baseball game at Fenway Park, one of America s most beloved Major League parks since it opened in 1912. And, even if the Red Sox aren t playing, you ll want to swing by and visit the Green Monster on one of the 50-minute tours offered daily. Cambridge Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA 02138 A trip across the Charles River to nearby Cambridge is an experience not to miss. Home to two of the most prestigious universities in the country, Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge is the host to stunning architecture and an incredible diversity of restaurants and shopping that attract a mix of students, locals, and sightseers.
