One meaningful day in Boston on Saturday, I covered the freedom trail, had Boston lobster for lunch, went to the habour, boston common, public garden, walked through the Newbury street, tour the museum of fine arts and took the subway for free! What a eventful day. Boston is a mixture of new and old, with modern and historical sites decorating the city.
Photo taken at the visitor centre of national heritage where they conduct free tour of the freedom of trail. Was playing with this hat while waiting for the tour to start!
The iconic landmark, the start of the trail which is 3 miles long stating the story of the America's Revoluntion to Independent.
Around the center of old boston, there are red trail on the road, by following it, you are walking the freedom trail, where every step tells a story.
The old south meeting house, the congregation point for the boston teaparty discussion in 1773. At that time, America being colonised by Britain, was obliged to ship tea. It was here that the tea party failed and angry rebels push 1 million dollars equivalent of teabags into the sea!
The old state house. See the balcony? that is the place where Declaration of Independent was first read to the public. It is the oldest surviving public buliding in Boston, built in 1713.
See the circle I stood on? it is the Boston Massacre, where British solders fired shots and killed 5 people within this spot.
20 USD! Boston Lobster! Good and CHEAP! It is so big that I shared with Maika!
A place with very nice ambience
Boston is very near the habour!
In Boston Common, the oldest park in USA.
Museum of Fine Arts where they housed many pieces of arts and articles, impressing! But high price, 15 USD for admission fee.
There were so much more, but I cant really share them all. Boston is a nice place to be. (so Jenny, maybe you should come and see!)
Though you only posted a few pics here, indeed Boston seems to be a beautiful place.
I want to eat that lobster!
I like that picture of you wearing the Revolutionary Era hat. Very cute! The kind of hat Samuel Adams used to wear when he was rabble rousing before the Revolution. And now they’ve named a beer after him. Boston does have a lot of history, lots of interesting statues, too.
That last shot of a painting looks like a Van Gogh. Do you know if it was? Not really a fan of his art, but he had a very distinctive style.
