Must-see places in Boston

1. Take the train from New York to Boston in the early morning, a four and a half hour journey. In the afternoon, we visited Boston Public Garden and the adjacent Boston Common, which is also the starting point of the Freedom Trail. Hike the Freedom Trail, a 4-kilometer red brick road that connects 16 historical sites scattered across Boston. The road brings together a microcosm of American history. Quincy Market is a famous shopping destination in Boston with its large columns and iconic gabled roof. We also visited Little Italy and Columbus Waterfront Park along the way. 2. Take the subway to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The museum has a very rich collection. The Chinese Pavilion houses many national treasures of Buddhist statues. It was a pity not to see the collections donated by the Weng family. USD27. Walk to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. The building is in the style of a Venetian palace. It is a private museum with more than 2,500 collections. The garden is beautiful and perfect for taking photos. USD22 (tax included). Continue walking to the Christian Science Plaza, a small reflecting pool. It's a great place to relax on a bench and enjoy the quietness. In the evening, the sunset over the Charles River is beautiful. Many people are running and cycling along the river. There are also small fountains and sculptures nearby. 3. Take the subway to Cambridge to visit Harvard University. The atmosphere of this institution of higher learning is really great. Many people take photos in front of the John Harvard statue on campus. It is said that touching the statue's feet will bring good luck. You can visit the free art museum Art Museum, which has a wide collection of collections. Then take the subway to MIT, and you can enter the landmark building Great Dome, where there is an extremely long corridor, the Infinite Corridor. The scene in the movie "Good Will Hunting" where students solve math problems on the blackboard in the corridor was filmed here. 4. In the afternoon, we came to the Boston Public Library. The classic Bates Hall on the second floor was gorgeous and exquisite, and the quiet learning atmosphere made visitors reluctant to disturb it. The environment is very good, making you fall in love with it
