Walk to the Sea

posted by froadman on 23 December 2010 at 17:08

I happened to be in Boston for half a day and thought it not quite long enough for the Freedom Trail, but I really enjoyed the Walk To The Sea, from the State House, Beacon Hill to the sea. Amazing to see the span of history in this short distance, really rewarding.

where, when, how, web
I downloaded a map before I left and followed it from the start at Beacon Hill, which was really easy to get to on public transport

Freedom Trail

posted by hmoore on 7 December 2010 at 12:34

There really is nothing better for getting to know a place than going on a walking tour adn they don't come much more famous than this. Packed full of 16 landmarks detailling the lives and deaths of the revolutionaries that worked their magic there. Get a free map or just follow the red brick road, and the best bit is loads of the attractions are free!

The official starting place is Boston Common information Centre

Newbury Street

Newbury Street is a must for visitors to Boston. First of all, I should let you know that this comment is coming from a non-shopper. And granted that is one of the major highlights of this destination, but believe me that is not ALL this place has to offer. The people-watching is a must-see with a total melting pot of both locals and domestic and foreign tourists alike. However, there’s also ample food and dessert options, plus a few drinking holes too. To me the icing on the cake was the ebullient park that Newbury Street feeds into. Just a perfect place to unwind and take a load off after putting some good mileage on the feet.
