Spend some time hanging out in the country's oldest park. The 50-acre Boston Common is the anchor for the Emerald Necklace park system and is the starting place of the famous Freedom Trail. There are quite a few monuments throughout the park, and several outdoor events take place in the Common throughout the year.
While you're hanging out in the Boston Public Garden, take a ride on the city's signature Swan Boats. The boats are the only ones of their kind in the world and they float the waters of the Public Garden lagoon. A ride on one of these boats is the best way to see all of the attractions in and around America's first botanical garden.
Learn about the important contributions made to Boston and our nation by the African American community at The Museum of African American History. This institution offers insight to the struggles, the triumphs and the stories of African Americans from the Colonial Period and throughout the 19th century. Exhibits feature important African American figures like Colin Powell, Barack Obama, and Nelson Mandela, and also showcase art works and artifacts.
