The experience is very good, the tour guide keeps talking for an hour, amusing everyone. You can experience all the city views on the land surface. The moment I launched the water, I was videoing it. I met other duck boats during the journey. Everyone would learn to duck and say hello to each other.

The aquarium is well designed, but the venue is a bit small. When there are activities in the school, there are a lot of children coming. Boston in May was still very cold and encountered heavy wind and rain. The ticket price feels a bit expensive.

Freedom Trail

西行阿里

The terminal of the Freedom Trail
This granite monument in Charlestown, Boston, is said to be one of the earliest monuments in the United States, used to commemorate the Battle of Bunker Hill between the British Army and the North American Colonial Militia (OK, I admit that I checked it recently
)
Now this is the terminal of Boston&#39;s Freedom Trail. If the weather is good, you can walk all the way from Boston Park~
The only way to get to the top of the monument is to climb the stairs
There are a total of 294 steps, and numbers are marked every few steps, so that people who are panting and climbing the stairs can have a number in mind

There is actually only a small space on the top of the monument, but looking out through the small windows on all four sides, I immediately feel that climbing the stairs is worth it~
