Between the music, culture, food and ocean breeze, it’s hard not to fall in love with Boston, USA. Located on the East Coast of the US – just a few hours north of New York – Boston is a city with a rich history. One of the oldest cities in the US, it’s also one of the country’s most important ports. Due to this, Boston quickly became a massive center of trade, academia and politics. As such, it made a name for itself as a progressive, cosmopolitan place to be. You can’t hate that.
Boston’s burgeoning culture – which was fuelled by cultural institutions like Harvard University – meant that the city found itself in the center of many historic events, being the birthplace of the American Revolution after the events of the Boston Tea Party.
This rebellious spirit lives on in the city today. With a variety of festivals and events, there are so many fun things to do in Boston. Explore the edgier side of the city by walking through a video installation at the Institute of Contemporary Art, or dance under flashing neon lights at the Together Boston festival. If the classics are more your thing, catch a performance by the city’s Symphony Orchestra at the Boston Symphony Hall, or get into some Shakespeare at the Boston Early Music Festival.
If one thing’s guaranteed, it’s that you’ll eat well in Boston. Between chowing down on delicious Brown Sauce Lobster Rolls at a ballgame at Fenway Park, popping into Omni House to try the original Boston Cream Pie, or queuing up for one of Craigie on Main’s Secret Burgers, this city is bursting with new foods to try.
