State House

posted by jgibson on 7 December 2010 at 12:35

If this one looks familiar to Londoners then you're right, as it was based on Somerset House! The building looks impressive from the outside as well as the inside, which we saw on our guided tour which was informative and interesting. The best bit I learned was that the gold dome wsa painted black during WWII to protect it.

Faneuil Hall Marketplace

posted by wrifler on 12 November 2010 at 16:38

A far more enjoyable shopping experience than the standard American 'mega mall' the marketplace is well laid out, houses a number of fantastic eateries and bespoke shops. Situated opposite the water, it also has a great comedy club.

Climb the 294 steps (if you can!) for some of the best views of the city. Plus it's free!

Christian Science Mother Church

My boyfriend and I went to this place after spying it between the trees. The church is fantastic, and the stained glass windows are just stunning. Afterwards, we took a walk around the plaza and took some lovely photos of the different angle of the church.

Quincy Market

What better way to spend lunchtime than with great food surrounded by great architecture! This famous granite and glass building boasts roman columns and a fabulous dome that you get to sit and look at when you eat your lunch. Shopping here is ok, although there are a lot of tourist-trap places and not as many artisans as when I went last time.

Between Chatham Street and Clinton Street, really near Aquarium station
