If you're hungry, head to the South Street Diner to appease your appetite. No matter what time of day or night, this eatery stays open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so it's perfect for late in the day breakfasts or that necessary fourth meal after a night at the bar. This diner has been a part of city culture since 1947 and it's definitely a Boston destination that you have to experience.

There's much to do outdoors at Boston's Franklin Park. The park has been coined as the “jewel” of the Emerald Necklace, boasting natural attractions like a beautiful pond and over 200 acres of forest. Other amenities of Franklin Park include an 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, baseball fields, playgrounds, a 2.5-mile loop path, and the Franklin Park Zoo.

Watch the opening battle of the American Revolution take place right before your eyes at Minute Man National Historical Park. This hallowed ground is where the war began and where it is relived through reenactments. These demonstrations aren't the only things to do at the park though; explore the visitors center, walk down Battle Road Trail, check out the Hartwell Tavern and The Wayside and other park attractions.
