Places to go and things to do in Boston!

Jul. 8, 2008
Categorized in: Places to go, things to do

Hi again!

How about a list of activities and things to do around Beantown? Ask and you shall receive!

Newbury St is great for shopping and strolling, of course, but did you know there are many art galleries you can visit? Newbury-st.com is the place to go to search for restaurants, shopping, art and nightlife on what is perhaps Boston's most famous street.

A trip to Fanueil Hall marketplace may tickle your fancy. You can pick up some souvenirs, take your photo with Red Auerbach (you'll see what I mean) or just window shop!

Want to go to a museum?  We've got plenty!  From the Museum of Science to the Museum of Fine Art, there is sure to be something oof interest. Boston-online.com  offers a list of local museums and their websites.

How about a trip to the New England Aquarium? You can visit shark, ray, seal and penguin exhibits!

Take a trip to the Boston Public garden and ride the swanboats!

The City of Boston site has a visitors area with loads of information!

Below is a list of activities with websites and phone numbers (in case you want to print a copy to take with you!)

Enjoy your stay in Boston and let me know if you have any questions.
